Easiest would be to winch the trailer back under the boat and not the boat back onto the trailer.

Thay winch the boat

Sun, 2011-05-22 20:19

Till the front of the boat was on the tail of the trailer, And 6 guys pull down on the bow rails Which lifted the back off the boat off  the ground motor and all

And then back the trailer back in the water, And put the boat back on the trailer THE RIGHT WAY THIS TIME

 Everyone makes mistakes, I assume this would have been embarrassing enough without bystanders taking photos and rubbing salt into the wound.

Not having a go, but I certainly hope he isn't a fishwrecked member and finds this thread. I'm sure everyone else would be saying the same thing if it were to happen to them.

even Safety chains sometimes break esp. the shitty shackels.

So easy to have something like this happening and no winners in an accident like this
