Yeah us too - 2 guys make it quicker, easier, faster and both guys stay dry and nobody needs to rely on panther like reflexes.
I think the OP asked about launching or loading up solo. I have boat similar to yours, a Lund Tyee 18.5 and climbing over the nose sucks on that boat. Trolling motor, mast stem base, fish finder on bow, rails, and a long way down to the trailer for people with short legs.
I just found it easier to walk the boat on using the dock or just having enough rope on the bow ring to pull her on without going in too deep into water.
