I keep dreaming of the launch ramp that charges by the minute, say $2 a minute. That would be beautiful...

What's the deal with all the women backing in the truck and trailers?

I lower the drives and start both engines and back off the trailer and get out of the way while he parks the truck and trailer. When he starts walking down to the docks, I will then proceed to pick him up. We are at the ramp about a minute.
And this is in a 1999 36' Baja Outlaw on the Mighty Mississippi.
My number one pet peeve is watching the women holding a rope walking along side the trailer being backed down the ramp. Then standing their holding the rope while their husband's park the truck and trailer. What a waste!!!

Ex wife wanted no part of anything except getting on and going. It sucked doing it all alone for the most part on a busy day but, could do it alone quicker than many with help.

Current girl I am seeing will be able to do it all, park truck, back trailer or dock boat by the end of summer. She's awesome!!!

We were at a Lake here in AZ waiting at the dock with the boat for the guys to get back from parking the truck. While we are waiting, we hear a young girls voice say "Oh my god.. (laughing) I don't know wher the brake is (on her waverunner) she nails the boat from behind. Then to top it all off.... I get out of the boat and being the insurance person go to immediatley assess everything ;) The girls friend comes barrelin' into the dock behind her and nails her friends waverunner and in turn our boat... AGAIN!!!!! I had had it at that point. I went over to her... ripped the lanyard off the steering handles and said, " Your brake is the f'n off button and your freakin' hands... you don't gas it when you're coming to the dock!" I was furious!!!!!
