Before you launch at Deadman Hole Boat Ramp
- Prep in the staging area first, because the less time you spend on the ramp, the happier the line behind you.
- Back in only until the stern floats, and set the parking brake before anyone gets out.
- Use the winch to load, since power loading digs holes at the toe of the ramp.
- Clean, drain and dry your boat and trailer before you leave Deadman Hole Boat Ramp, so invasive mussels and plants don't travel to the next lake.
