- Prep in the staging area first, because the less time you spend on the ramp, the happier the line behind you.
- Stop when the boat starts to float at Turnip Patch, no deeper, and leave the vehicle in park with the brake set.
- When you come back to Turnip Patch, winch the boat on instead of power loading, which keeps the end of the ramp intact.
- When you leave Turnip Patch, pull off any weeds and drain all water from the boat.
