I'll have to post the video of the attempt to break worlds longest boat hookup.

I hate missing side to side by inches coming back doing it again, and again.

I've tried the PVC thing, I'll give that a shot with the v-bracket from cabela's.

H*** just put the truck in reverse close your eyes and STEP on it!!!

realy I have three bolts that form a triangle they hold the tailgate handle on I just line them up and Back up slowly tell you feel the bump

it just takes practice ,… if you are worried about a dent in the license plate late just put a board in front of it

I never wear high heels while trailering a boat. Too dangerous.
