I spend at lot of time at lakes fishing and I see this kind of stuff all the time. I seen one guy with a PT cruiser with a empty two sea doo trailer stuck on the dry part of boat ramp.

I live right next to the harbor out here and have watched some 1/2 ton trucks get drug down the ramp by the boat and trailer they are all just lucky that once the boat starts floating they stop. Most issues I see at the launch ramps is people sinking their boats .

That's why pontoons are so good, no drain plugs to worry about, but it does take a truck to pull it, as it's like pulling a parachute behind your truck.

I saw my old co-worker with a 2wd half-ton Chevy pull out several 30+ foot boats on a triaxle trailer without ever even getting his tires wet.

With experience you can pull about anything out with anything on a launch ramp.
