[QUOTE="Crazyboat, post: 451150, member: 21552"] Forgive this post as I don't trailer my boat. I have watched many boats pull into slips with heavy current and maybe you can do this. If you can install guard rails on the trailer that give maybe 8" of play at the stern end and 2" at the bow/hitch end, you approach from down stream, nudge the bow into the opening from a 45 degree angle, once the bow is in the hole, you gun her up onto the trailer, connect the winch and your done. The rails will guide you on straight and be almost centered each time. If I sound crazy, well, just look at the name, but that's what I'd do if I wad that much trouble. [/QUOTE]
