[QUOTE="RaisedByWolves, post: 466117, member: 22989"] To add to this, use a line attached to the stern on the upwind/up river side of the boat held in the hand on that same side. When the boat touches the rear most roller you can then steady it with this rope to keep it straight. Then you dont even need the rear most roller in much water, then just walk out with the winch rope, hook it on and commence cranking. If its too cold to wade have a loop on your bow line and or walk the plank to attach the winch line. I have single handedly retrieved an 18' Chris Craft cabin cruiser (3000lbs) with this method and its so simple after a few tries you'll wonder why you ever did anything else. [/QUOTE]
