Things I Wish I Knew Then--Boat Ramp Edition

[FiletAndRelease]

has anyone ever used their CoPilot Remote to launch their boat. Ive been wanting to try it next time I'm by myself. I was thinking I could tie a rope to the boat and use the remote to pull off from trailer then troll to the dock to tie up. Sounds simple enough, but do you think it might work?

It would depend on the cross braces on your trailer. Many have cross members that the TM would hit. Had to load a friends "dead" boat using the copilot, while I was in the boat and had to pull the TM up well before I got close to a point it could be grabbed from shore. Even at a shallow setting, I would have hit the cross brace.
