Trailer Sailing
« on: September 12, 2009, 10:52:53 AM »
I found these photos in a thread on the Wooden Boat Forum.

Trailer sailing is a convenient way to get on the water.  Backing a trailer down the ramp is an acquired skill.  These guys need just a little more practice:

You know, years ago I used to do a lot of night fishing on the outer Cape beaches - every year there would be a few guy's that would end up in the rising surf - so i can see it happening.... but I just can't understand how someone goes down "bow First" as in the first pic.....The only thing I can think is the guy parked it there and just didn't take into account a large tide swing...or there was alcohol involved!
