    Cheers Greg, good tutorial. It’s daunting thinking about how to do this when you’ve never done it before, I can see now it’s alot easier than you would think.

    Great video. With heavier jetskis and boats, you can snatch the trailer out with a line attached to the back of your car. You tow out on an angle to lever the trailer wheels out of the sand which they've sunk into.

    GREAT VIDEO¡ BUT I WANT TO KNOW HOW YOU TAKE DEEP ENOUGH TO TURN THE MOTOR ON, AND HOW YOU TAKE THE JETSKY TO THE SHORE WITH THW MOTOR OFF SOTHE MOTOR DOES NOT TAKE SAND AND DEBRIS IN THE WATER INTAKE

    • @gregmarthabutler
      @gregmarthabutler  6 месяцев назад +1

      Ye its difficult on such a shallow beach, but once off the trailer you can push it further out, being careful of surroundings and whats underfoot, a slightly steeper beach would be better but nature is nature.
      I usually, push the ski out to just over knee height and then jump on and start up at idle, this will reduce the risk of picking anything up until its deep enough, usually in the uk at least you cant go more than 4knots within approx 50-100mtrs (this varies) due to swimming areas.
      Its all about minimising sand intake, you can only do so much, or else its swim out and maybe put yourself in danger.
      Simply dont come near the beach with too much much throttle.
      Always wash the ski out after use.
      Hope this helps

      @@gregmarthabutler I'm ordering one from a UK Amazon supplier, should be here in a few weeks. For some reason, in the US, all the options we have a either a single or double jockey wheel that is quite skinny and hard plastic (or resin) and just sinks into sand, only meant to maneuver on concrete. There are no boat ramps where i go in Mexico, so i need to launch my pwc attached to my truck or get a proper jockey wheel to hand launch it off the shore.

    @slabcharger7162 2 года назад +1

    Worst launch! Get close to water, disconnect the winch strap.reverse with steady speed until trailor hits water(even better if a little wave is timed.slam on brakes, ski slides off , minimal salt water exposure to car too.
    To have a beach that isn't extremely boggy in Australia is rare, no way your pulling that trailor by hand, with a ski on it would take 20 men. Even a good 4x4 with tyres deflated can struggle

    • @gregmarthabutler
      @gregmarthabutler  3 года назад

      I do this technique will all skis, yes it can be easier with two people launching bigger skis, however i launch a Seadoo GTX no problem.
      One thing i can really recommend for beach launching is wider trailer wheels and an inflatable jockey to reduce sinking in the sand 👍
