Before you launch at Fisherman's
- Lines, fenders and plug: sort them out in the lot, then roll down to Fisherman's ready to go.
- Set the parking brake before anyone steps out, even if the ramp at Fisherman's looks flat.
- When you come back to Fisherman's, winch the boat on instead of power loading, which keeps the end of the ramp intact.
- Good to know for Fisherman's: Minnesota requires boaters to drain all water by pulling the plug when leaving a lake, and to trailer with the plug out.
