Hi all, every time I launch or retrieve my boat at the ramp I have to bascally put my bumper and the whole trailer under water while we load it and crank it down, I have seen a boat or two be driven up on the trailer, no many, is there a trick to driving it up on the trailer so I do not have to submerge my trailer and my bumper, it seems I have no choice to get the boat far enough up on the trailer, any suggestions ? The place where I got my trailer fixed, was asking, and I really have to back my truck way into the water to properly position the trailer to two it out ? ]]> Boating Discussion tara11 http://www.bloodydecks.com/forums/boating-discussion/168757-launching-question-maybe-dumb.html Surveyor for Skipjack/riverside http://www.bloodydecks.com/forums/boating-discussion/168709-surveyor-skipjack-riverside.html Thu, 19 Nov 2009 03:11:13 GMT Looking for a surveyor who knows skipjack in and out.

I want a small fiberglass center console similar to a Boston Whaler (Something around 14'-18'). Something for the bays, and maybe La Jolla or the PL kelp from time to time.

What I want to know is, what brands are out there?
I know of Boston Whaler, and a few others, but am sure I am missing some.

If you know any boat makers that make a fiberglass boat similar to a Whaler please chime in!

I got VA tow package and put both of our names on it. BoatUS sent us both ID cards.

We called them about getting insurance and they told us that since i was the one who bought the towing coverage my partner also needs to buy a plan for himself or i need to be on the boat for the towing to be covered?

Does this sound right? ]]> Boating Discussion andy916 http://www.bloodydecks.com/forums/boating-discussion/168166-va-question.html <![CDATA[Question?
