Hey there Amigo, first timer here, just watching your video on a -43C winters evening. Just needed some reassurance that we actually do have a boating season up here. Loved the video my friend, keep em coming! Cheers from Winnipeg….😂👍🏼👍🏼🍻🍻
I’m in Kentucky and thought I’d let you know I was scrolling RUclips for something to watch a few weeks ago. I’m addicted to the Big Dan Show. Thanks for keeping me entertained.
My local radio station here in West Palm Beach Florida 97.9 was talking about RUclips channels, devoted to boating,,the mishaps,experts etc,on the live chat I through your channel out there, hope it gets some people coming your way💯✌🏻💞, big shout out to the wifey😎
16:50 it amazes me how many people put themselves in pinch points with docks and trucks etc. Captains arm slips and hammers down the throttle, and ole boy in blue is gonna have a bad day
Love the show Big Dan. I have bin watching your show for a long time now. I finally subscribed. I look forward to a bit more drone footage.. Keep up the great content.. Cheers Mal.
Hey Mr. Big Dan, I would hate to see some of these people retrieving their boats in the north in the fall. I do it by myself and never get my feet wet. Once again it was nice meeting you this April.
My son bought a new speed boat this summer. He learned the proper way to trailer it just by watching your show. Don't know why more people don't tune in to learn how.
@@TheBigDanShow I'm in Utah. Center consoles are rare, never seen one and pontoons are a rare too. Maybe just the size. We are a lake state, not an ocean fishing state. Its early here, but I have see maybe a dozen ski boats and one pontoon.
Cue the Benny Hill Show theme song for this one Big Dan. Enjoying your channel here in the Garden State....newer subscriber. Taking delivery on a boat tomorrow.
The comment at 2:00 min about an up north trailer. Here in Pa. we have trailers like that and people can't back them up either or load their boats any better than southern folks. Sometimes it may even be worse.
Hey big Dan, I just started watching your show and I love the commentary specially when you give comments on how they can improve their docking skills and boat ramp skills lotta people really need that help specially if they watch this channel, they can get the information and try to do better job. When it comes to that guy that verbally assaulted you he’s an idiot there’s no reason for anybody to act like that, specially when they disregard everybody else by taking up three ramps because they’re either too dumb or too drunk to figure it out. And if he really knew the law, he’d know that it was legal to film in public get over himself. He really needs to try to be courteous to other people, And stop thinking about himself. Great show Dan keep it up. Love your work. You seem to be a great guy. Oh, and keep calling out the idiots that disrespect everybody else coming in they need that.
Seeing all of those boats reminded me of the time I saw Lake Union (WA) so full of boats, sailboats couldn't use their sails and looked as though a person could go from boat to boat across the lake? ;-) I had a concept of an amphibious Land & Sea - SeaCabin houseboat and I keep imagining the shock people would have seeing it drive up a boat ramp with the driver at the upper helm? ;-D

Love your channel ! New subscriber from northern Minnesota, we don't really see the big boat's like you do. Not near as busy at the ramp either. (At least at the lakes I fish.) Cheers !!
Ol’ man at 30 minutes was giving me heart palpitations. Thought he was going to end up being nothing more than a smear on the side of the dock. Not to mention the constant pulling forward and backing up.
As a seadoo owner I can tell you it does take some practice dealing with a trailer you can barely see but it is most definitely not impossible to handle. Some people really need to set up some cones and practice before the go to these high traffic boat ramps
@@TheBigDanShow bc up here in Birmingham we don’t have a whole lot of areas where you are this stacked when launching and loading but I can assure people will watch and see how well you handle you’re rig
It’s a pontoon trailer.we see them in Wisconsin quite a bit. They’re great for shallow launches as they go under the center of the boat not under the pontoons
Hi Dan, first of all...love your channel, love your vids!! Here in the Netherlands we all trailer without those guiding-poles or whatever they call it. Why do you use them back in the US? Keep posting!! Greetings from the Netherlands!
Welcome! Glad to have you here from the other side of the world. That’s to cool! Just easy to line up with the guide pipes. You can tell many of these goobers need more than that 🤣
Always enjoy your vids, Dan. One thing that' s absence from them is foul language. Thank you for that. I'm not a prude, but the F bomb does nothing to enhance any video.
Big Dan, if people would back their boat in and unload, then pull their trailer out and spray their bunks with silicon really well they would find that it wouldn’t be necessary to burn three gallons of fuel with motors full throttle trying to get the boat to the winch. Pontoon boats will love this. Also quit drowning the trailer. Only wet about 2/3rds of the bunks.
You need extra batteries for that drone. There is a boat ramp at a lake near Dallas, TX that is this busy on weekends. I hated to launch there. I had a 17' Sea Ray with a very good trailer which seemed all most self loading. I had a small sailboat that was so light weight any wind would make it hell to load it on its trailer.
Stop picking on guys or gals that don't power load. I am pretty fast, not power loading. Up here in Ohio, you can get a ticket if you're caught power loading more than once. Love your show😊
the captain should brief his crew on what to do/handle the lines when getting to the ramp and nominate 2 people. One for forward and one and for aft lines.
The passengers in these boats seem utterly clueless that returning to the ramp they need to act a little differently than after the boat has been launched and they’re going boating 😂😂😂😂
Big Dan that landing looks familiar to this MN guy but I can’t quite place it. Where are you filming? We love your content and watch from Watertown MN.
Odd trailer is marina pontoon transport trailer. its raises and lowers hydraulic or winch and can set or pick up a pontoon off the ground in the marina yard. Pretty common here in Ohio, not really designed for highway travel, but that never stops anyone.
Exactly why I don't own boats anymore. Live near Destin area. Way too many people and so many that don't have a clue what they are doing. It just ain't fun anymore. I enjoy watching your videos way more than ever own a boat again! haha
@7:47 People always give boaters crap about using fenders. But, the fenders protect YOUR boat from INCONSIDERATE boaters who throw a big wake through a no wake zone. Smashed fingers and gouged Gelcoats is not worth it. Example: Been boating since I was 11. Now 47. I was ridiculed in Charleston for using my 5 fenders at the dock on my 24' boat in an area known for inconsiderate boaters throwing wake. While getting my trailer, a 28 ft boat threw a huge wake through a no wake zone. Boats slammed against the pier with wives / children / husbands / crew trying to protect the boats from hitting the dock. A smashed finger and lots of mad people furious about scratched up Gel coats from one inconsiderate boater. My 24' with 5fenders was well protected. My wife and I knew the fenders would do their job, and let the fenders do their job. Laugh at me all you want, but I didn't have hundreds / thousands of $ on gelcoat damage to my boat, nor did I have to worry about the inconsiderate boater.
But loaded with stupidity. Guaranteed they don’t have enough life vests for everyone. I only keep 4, it gives me valid reason to not have more than four people in my 20’ bayboat. Marine patrol could make a killing checking for life vests right there without having a boat. And personally I’m okay with safety concerns, not to mention boats rated capacity in persons. Mine says 7 on data placard, but 4 is my personal limit.
I am OLD!!! I would love to get a boat but I can't even back up a trailer let alone get a boat back on a trailer! I would have to pay someone to do it for me. LOL
Some of the people are just Goober’s! The Sea Doo pontoon has the same mentality as people that have jet skies! Love..love..love your channel! ❤
Haha Fact! Thanks friend!
Awesome Big Dan! You got a lot of great shots on the Busiest Boat Ramp on the Gulf coast! And even Snoopy got one!
Thanks a bunch!

Lmao! 🤣
Man I just love the summer time. the views are getting better and better. Can't wait until the next video comes out. Thanks Big D
Thanks 👍 🤘
Snoopy fantastic!! I swear this episode should be called the "BOOZ CRUSE" Half these captains are chit faced.

Great video and definitely not a day for a first time boat to try and take out at the ramp.
You got that right!
❤ the 30 minute video. And its awesome to see how much this channel has grown within the last year. Congrats to you Big Dan!!
Thanks so much!! we’re chugging along! Thank you for your support
I'm a new boater.....so....stuff happens that you don't expect or want.....love the show....
Nothing short of entertainment 😁
Time for me to get my boat back on the water 👍
Haha no doubt
Hi Big Dan, Good show Today ! Captain Keith Tight lines
Thanks friend
That was a super busy day at the boat ramp.
Oh yeah

30:50 as well. Good lord😂

The more flags and more people in the bow, the easier it is to hit the trailer!😂😂

Great drone footage 👍
love the videos. can't comment cuz we watch on big screen smart tv !

You are correct, that pantoon trailer is an up north thing unfortunately. People in my parts use those. Those things can easily tip over.
Looks like it and would be hard to change a spare tire lol

I have never seen such mayhem. What in the world? It doesn't steer like a car boys and girls, damn!
never got to see that funny looking "northern" trailer...SUPER curious what kinda boat would be hauled
Catamaran I'd imagine, maybe a homemade trailer.
Picnic table trailer 🤣🤣🤣
Agree, what loaded on that trailer?
It’s a pontoon trailer.we see them in Wisconsin quite a bit. They’re great for shallow launches as they go under the center of the boat not under the pontoons

Toon boat
Hmmmmm no carpet bunks ?
I looked on line - is that even sturdy in an emergency???
the captain should brief his crew on what to do/handle the lines when getting to the ramp and nominate 2 people. One for forward and one and for aft lines.
its always a pontoon loaded to the gills making big wake at the ol ICW

thanx mancave for telling what that trailer was hauling
