Before you launch at Ansel Pond
- 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.
- When you come back to Ansel Pond, winch the boat on instead of power loading, which keeps the end of the ramp intact.
- When you leave Ansel Pond, pull off any weeds and drain all water from the boat.
