[QUOTE="TJ-RV, post: 128391"] LOL Olley. I've reversed a motorhome and boat down short, narrow launch ramps as well as busy 7-lane ones with a good runway. On the busy ones, you don't get a chance to get it wrong the first time without getting lots of people mad at you. The toughest one I navigated was a very short ramp barely wide enough for the trailer wheels, at a sharp angle to the narrow levy dirt approach road. I had an audience of RVers from the adjacent campground lined up on the levy. When I successfully launched the boat in one try, everyone was clapping and cheering. One guy told my wife "we were betting he couldn't do that". FWIW I used to launch down our favourite ramp at a state park after 10.00pm (pitch dark). Admittedly, it was several lanes with a decent runway, but nothing like 800 yards :BigGrin: [/QUOTE]
