Tips for Filburns
- Get the boat ready away from the lane at Filburns, so the ramp stays free for the next trailer.
- You only need enough water to float the boat off, and the parking brake goes on every time.
- 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 Filburns, so invasive mussels and plants don't travel to the next lake.
