Yea I trailer it, but its never a fun experience. Generally though I just take it out on the river from its slip. When my grandpa had it he stored it on his property and would trailer it out to the lake or river ever weekend. IDK how he did it, guess it was nerves of steel. Personally I hate pulling it. I only have taken it off the Sac river a few times, and each time it took at least 2 hours to de stress from it all. And holy cow, putting it back on the trailer is a 4-5 person job. The trailer has probably 15 foot pvc guide poles, because obviously I have to completely submerge the trailer to put it back on. Since its so old, its a heavy SOB to lol.

I'll be blunt dude, ya got a bigger pair than me.:-P

and I clank when I'm strolling.:o:o

Takes me about three minutes to launch and recover her.

There is a wide concrete launch ramp & I've seen some big party barges on the lake........

Ramp Follies!!!!!!!!

I love getting to the ramp early during the first couple of Holidays to watch the show. I've seen some funny and some not so funny boat launch attempts.
Heck, even had signs to flash scores. Some fun stuff, mostly. Worst I ever did was being in a hurry to launch out of San Diego for Tuna run. Left the damn safety chain on the bow eye hook and damn near dragged the dually into the ocean trying to get off a ROLLER trailer. No damage done to her, but my ego
took a hit when I realized what I did while in a hurry.

Ah ok if they can get the party barges on the water I probably can get mine in. I will dig up the lights for the cat fishing. I will bring some extra poles to, but I won't spend the whole time setting up people's poles over and over will drive me bonkers! I do ask anyone wanting to fish off the boat to please have a fishing license. Don't wanna get fines is all

I'm looking for a free carport frame on craigslist. I already have a piece of 6mil plastic for a roof & an extra roll of sunscreen mesh for walls. I will set-up a 'doublejj' carport at the BBQ. And we can use it all day & we'll give it away to the most deserving "I lost everything too: rippers, rain, bud worms, mold, or wind" story of the season.:-(.......... we'll take a vote.....;-)
By the sounds of what I've been reading, I better look for several carport frames.........been a tough season so far....come to the BBQ guy's.....

God I love the smell of the fresh rain. Makes me miss living in the hills so much. Nothing beats the smell of that first rain in the forest. Unless of course its still budding season and someone forgot to cover or shake their plants. hopefully everyone was prepared for the rain!

If not, you best be out there shaking the water outta your buds!

stay lit my friends,

-papa
