I don't like the lights either, look like Frog eyes. Nice find. Outrage has higher gunwales than the Montauk, more offshore capability.

Incredible, may I ask what you’re towing her with?

Good points. But when I launch my boat I’m paranoid that in the “heat of battle” I’ll just get out to attend to the boat and forget to drop the vehicle into park. I’ve seen it happen!

You'd think they'd design boat ramps to have bumps to give traction

Good basic info! Towed a 20 ft er for 15 yrs w/ a full size Chevy Caprice WAGON! No kidding...laughing stock of all my prof. Firefighter buddies!! Bought real estate & raised 5 kids on that boat!

That's a fun run. I need to do that again soon.

The only reason I even have 4x4 on my truck is for launching and retrieving my boats. I even put it in 4 wheel drive when I'm launching my 500 pound Whaler. I sure put it in 4 wheel drive when I'm launching my 5000 pound Mako CC. It's too late when you're sliding down the ramp.

Just have a normal vehicle with front wheel drive

As soon as you said you need 4wd I turned this crap off. You obviously don't know how to drive.

Wrap the truck in pool noodles to help it float.

Trucks are not water tight like boats hence why trucks don't float as well.

Stupid dumb sick

Yall really need a Culinary Specialist

Chalk works for gymnastics, but not for launch ramps.

For a video with this title you really should have addressed the common issues of: Not ensuring vehicle is in park Not engaging parking break Not having manual transmissions in gear or relying only on parking brake while in N Falling out of truck while looking back through open door These are far more common than a loss of traction due to wheel spin

I wonder how many of these "accidents" are actually tenatives to defraud the inssurance companies by making them pay for a truck the owner can no longer pay for or just wants to get rid of without paying for it.

When you stop to unload, or stop to load the boat, you should also engage the parking brake

What if your car is front wheel drive? I'm looking into getting my first boat and it will be kept on a trailer, just looking for tips. It won't be too heavy, just an older 17 montauk

always a nightmare scenario, its best to stay overly cautious at the ramp

Trucks are heavier than water

I have the same exact truck. That can happen but it really doesn't....

"Trucks Get Submerged at Boat Ramps". It's so simple: because cars are not watertight and don't swim

How about just not getting the truck tires in the water at all? Too many people back too far. The boat trailer tires don’t need to be submerged. Then just put on the trucks emergency brake.

A lot of trailer tongues are too short

People don't understand physics

Sounds like the job I am doing. Want to help me? Charleston sc

Hey man, I’m 16 and looking at the coast guard but I want to join msrt how would I do that?

Yes. Become a sovereign citizen today.

Thank you for this helpful information sir.

When you say active duty that means that you live on the boat or on some sort of base if you were a part of another branch ? Also, if I were to serve active duty could I then become a reservist at a later point within that same contract ?

I would say incompetence is the number one factor.

I've grown up on the river /ocean continuum. From the age of 10 - now 60!! I have seen many cars and trucks submerged at ramps!! Rarely has it been a mechanical issue, but I have seen that. Even when I drove my trailer off the end of the ramp and pulled forward pulling off my axle it was a total brain fart!! (LOL)!! But 90% of the issues are due to inexperience, alcohol, and stupidity as the real cause!! 🤣🤣

😁👍🏻 Or people putting the trailer wheels off the ramp slabs at low tide, which can change. I launched in twenty years. When you do it all the time it looks easy to others, but you gotta know what you’re doing. Thanks for the reminder.

I would think this was obvious.. guess not..

nice its

I always admired the Coast Guard.. I wanted to join when I was 18 but I couldn’t because of my 80 percent hearing loss and wear hearing aids.😢

Have done this trip and can’t get enough. Thanks for taking me again!

It seems to me that boat docks should have mandatory concrete pylons (or something) that you can connect a tow hitch to as a safeguard. Therefore if you do begin to slip or get pulled, you will only go so far. That's pretty cheap insurance. Other possible ideas are encouraged.

When I was younger I always took a 3 feet =1metre extension tube, to save car getting too close to the water. It was like a telescope, one piece fitting into the other. The extension fitted to the trailer, with a bolt or pin. The other fitted to the car tow hitch, i leave the design to you as some trailers are different than others. You can drill a few extra holes in the tube to suit the length you require. When you cut the tube to length , it can be cut even longer. Hope this helps.

Awesome video, I just uncovered a 199 0 Montauk that was given to us, first thing I discovered was a locked steering shaft. Thank you so much for all this information. I look forward to getting this beast out on the water.

Love my 88 18 foot outrage with a 2011 150 optimax I call it the preous of the sea due to the great fuel economy.

in enlistment process as I watch this

I was an Electronics Technician in the Coast Guard. I got all of the benefits of being in the Coast Guard along with the quality education of electronics and advanced electronics training. Much of the gear I worked on was Navy equipment and I went to allot of Navy C schools. This education allowed me to get a high paying job immediately after getting out. I loved the Coast Guard and the only reason I got out was I wanted to start a family and being stationed on a ship was not conducive for that. Knowing what I know now, I would join the Coast Guard again with out a doubt. Semper Paratus!

No shit Sherlock

Why do trucks sink?... Because they aren't boats?

Because people are idiots.

Towed a 24ft boat (6900 lbs) with a 2wd sequoia for 15 years. Never had a problem. Oh, All cars start in low gear. This guys an idiot.
