Why do people get down to the boat ramp, turn around getting ready to back down into the water then stop!!!    :angry   They will all get out of the truck and load up the cooler, clothes, towles ect..  Put the dog in the boat.  Put the drain plug in, remove the trailer straps and put sun screen on little joey.  Why doesn't the prick do this before they get ready to launch and block the ramp for ten uneccesary minutes?   :banghead

Sometimes I wish I had a gun with me.   :guns

This is a new to you??? :stupid  Huge pet peve for many.
Wife, family and I don't spend much more than 30-60 seconds on the ramp whether launching or retrieving.......
Then you have the boaters that come out twice a year, often there is alot of yelling between spouses at that moment....
Total lack of respect to others around them.

Ain't life Grand? Treat it that way.

The exact reason why I love Martinez, on a busy launch day we might wait for one truck, and since the location isn't just a local public ramp most people are in and out in a minute. Oh BTW, did I tell you that Martinez SUCKS, where the hell is it anyway??? :D

RIVER! If you have to ask you wont understand...

Those are the same groups that the driver of the tow vehicle also drives the boat on and off the trailer and takes up room on the ramp while they try to find a place on the doc to park the boat so he can retrieve the truck and trailer.

OOORRR  there the ones that wait for there trailer to get to the water sitting cross ways at the end of the ramp in the boat.  :angry   :angry
