You see that a lot come spring at Sardis and Grenada.
How do they manage to do this at Graysport? Those waves don't look like they'd come over the stern...reckon he didn't take off his tie downs? Been launching there for years and have seen it a few times.
Seen it a time or two, helped load 2 flooded ones last year. Miss the rite groove in the trailer loading and throw it in reverse and it don't take much.
Not me, but is sho nuff coulda been two years ago. That IS NOT a good feeling. Hope he made out ok.
Saw a guy get his timing wrong at Graysport on a very windy day and the waves put the nose of his Jon boat in the back window of his SUV once.Quote:

I must agree with John, if the weather and wind got behind you loading on the trailer it wouldn't be hard to do.
Let a good wind come out of the north west on a spring day. Somebody is gonna have to pump the boat out at south gray sport. But only if there is any water...
not very hard to do in a west wind at greysport.
Saw serveral swamp at Holiday Lodge last year.
Well that wasn't me but know EXACTLY how he feels. Holiday.
Been there , done that on Greer's ferry. Was working on our houseboat in a cove and didn't realize the main lake had 4 ft swells. Ramp was down wind and just as I hit the trailer here came a swell and get me down on top of a guide on. Next one broke over the back and swamped me. Seats floated out along with gas tanks, the interior needed cleaning anyway.
