Once on the trailer I crawl to the front and step onto my trailer from my boat very carefully and reel the boat up tight to the trailer. I then make sure the motor is trimmed all the way up jump in the truck pull out of the water nice and easy and get out of the way of anyone looking to back down the ramp. Then I do my walk around pull plug and finish tieing things down and putting **** away.
X2, 17.5 ft Lund, 150 verado outboard. I have bunks, which allows a little more forgiveness in loading, but even when I have someone in the truck, I still do the same process, the driver of the truck doesn't get out.
