It’s great to hear you are still out there it’s a double edge sword. It’s nice to be alone out there but it’s also nice to have a person or two with you.
It looks like it’s bungee cords and your boat tie down. Great idea and not a lot of work for it to work. Just size the back bungee cords to be stretched at the front with enough play to allow your boat in the middle. There should be enough tension on them to hold everything up while your trying to load your boat.
Turn the trailer into the wind and that helps a ton.. he has a small boat, I run a 24 footer and load onto a trailer in 20mph wind and have little problems. Whats even worse is current and wind but the concept is the same, the boat is easy to steer into the wind and current.
I have a 22' jet boat, can put it on a dime, but, you sir are correct, high winds and no prop in the water, make for some difficult loading. This loader would be awesome.
@@elcajondavid1 as you are backing in you angle the trailer. we can't power load here because prop wash erodes the bottom where there is no cement that can cause issues. anyway, I TRY to angle my trailer a little toward the dock so when I am pulling the boat with ropes I have a better shot at getting the boat pushed onto the trailer between the fenders. I hope that makes sense.
@@therosses5. Then you must have a wide boat ramp with little use of it to do that, because most boat ramps are very busy and people will lose their cookies if you take up the whole boat ramp.
This looks like a great idea. I understand those of you that disregard this, however for less experienced boaters and even those with years of experience but are getting older and are finding it more difficult, this looks like a good idea. I myself have no problems loading my boats in awkward ramps but can see the usefulness for others.
@@scootersonlyrepair6773 so are you against new ideas? Remember, it's because of experimenting and thinking outside of the box that completely new concepts of doing things are discovered.
Ha too funny! I'm with ya! Kiddos at the launch with you = stress x 100. Heck finding a place to park is bad enough! I always thought someone needs to invent a trailer that folds down so you can stuff it under your truck and just take up one parking space...
I remember my second time ever taking my.first boat out. We had a cold front come in. 3 to 4 ft rollers. My dumb self thought it was a good idea to find a creek channel.to hide from wind. Dropped in and realized I couldn't drive a.bass boat.accross.the lake in.those.conditions. But!..I trailered the boat so perfectly with such horrible conditions that now im.forever grateful..it made me a better boater.
@@richardharris3896 And...he just made a simple observation and compliment of the video he’d just watched, which is very normal and usual behavior. LoL, smh.
I don’t know why there’s so many haters. There’s a lot of different angled ramps to load from and I believe this is a good idea. Not all ramps are an easy winch on ramp. Thanks for the video. Cool idea.
Some people just love to be negative! If it makes boating more fun, easier, or possible in more challenging conditions then it can only be good, surely?
Go into to gumboots and wader business know. Someone still had to get out to get the car and trailer. And that preson is still getting wet. Really know I think about it. The thing is a bit of a gimmick. The only way that thing would be good. If it parked your car when you get the boat off the trailer and then it gets your car when you get back.
@@battlefish8366 I'm not going to buy one. I just want to know how in detail how it works. One video I watched showed a manual crank winch & it was just winding the boat in.
@@battlefish8366 One person ALWAYS has to go get the truck/trailer - what's your point? Single boaters do it ALL THE TIME. You simply tie your boat and go get your gear. All this shows is that you can completely load your boat single-handedly from the rear - which is really handy when you are by yourself. Even better when there is a wind.
Wish I had this years ago. Up through the late 90's I owned a 1957 Crestliner runabout converted to a simple fishing boat. 35 HP motor. Location was on Lake Taneycomo, Branson Missouri. Launching no problem. Lake has a wicked current at times, and fairly narrow at the ramp we used. 4 generators and up to 10 spillways from Table Rock Lake. If water was running re trailering was sometimes difficult. Sometimes it took a couple of tries. I learned quickly to go downstream of the trailer and come up very slow at a slight angle. Somehow, we always got it loaded and back home safely.
This system is very simple, everything can be seen from the video. The ends of the cables are connected in the middle and have short tubes for protection. Then the cable runs to the struts at the ends of the trailer, and there it returns along the rollers to the center of the cable connection. In the center, both cables from different sides are connected through the ring and go to the winch. When the boat starts pushing the cables, it pulls both cables of different sides from the winch, and the winch spins, releasing the cables. Nobody pulls the boat, it goes into the trailer itself, pushed by the motor. The disadvantage of this system is that the cables are pulled along the sides of the boat. In doing so, they can peel off the paint or even the aluminum itself. You also need very strong stands on the trailer. And the boat must crawl onto the trailer by itself, otherwise it will be very difficult to tighten, since the cables are pulled through the racks at the ends of the trailer, and all the load will be on them. Conclusion - hemorrhoids are more than good ...
Most problems with loading is the fact the trailer is backed in the water to deep. Pull ahead until the fenders are out of the water a bit more. The bunks on the trailer will do the same thing.
@@chrismarks2881 Agreed! If the trailer is at the correct depth this is useless. Only thing is if the ramp is SUPER steep maybe...the bunks aren't as effective in centering the boat.
Great idea I did not patent back in the mid 70s 🤣 I broke the watch my dad gave me the prior Xmas when winding the boat up, the crank slipped under tension and spun back around crushing it on my wrist. Great idea 👍👍👍
I dont operate jet boats but my local fishing spots are all on a fast moving river and thats the technique i use. Works much better than submerging the trailer. Also keeps a helpers feet dry of you have one.
I used to load a boat once a week and I was good, but even then in crossing tailwind, this would have been nice. Now when I land a boat 5 times a year, even nicer. Very clever whether you need it or not!
if 1988 is your birth year you are a millenial. Most of the critics are more likely middle aged Gen Y and X that feel the need to show how MANLY they are. CAUSE MAGA!!!!! wooo!!!!!! It is a nice idea for solo loading, especially in high wind, or in a boat with a large t top.
It's not even really doing anything. It's winding up slack in the strap, it's NOT cranking the boat up on the trailer. Why not just have a snap clip that catches the bow eye when you drive the boat up to the winch post?
@@chiphill4856 Did you watch the whole video? The outboard is used to load boat on trailer, but that device keeps it centered. On a windy day for a single person out boating or fishing, this is a great setup.
this would be a great idea for someone that does not have the original trailer for there boat. I know how much of a pain in the ass it is to get your boat loaded straight when you don't have the original boat trailer. especially a trailer with rollers.
Nice job by the captain, in that crosswind!! The trailer could use another set of side rollers, a little further forward too, so it wasn't so reliant on the ropes. Pretty nice idea!
thanks for posting, it's always interesting to see new ideas. ignore the jerks who can't resist displaying their animosity and ignorance by posting insulting and obscene remarks towards decent people who take the time to post a video that might help others. to you guys who left insulting comments, grow up, leave constructive criticism, not insulting comments to well intentioned videos. don't bully, you're not in grade school anymore.
Why do it tough if there is a device like this to make it easy. Great idea. BTW I CAN load a boat but in windy conditions and solo this makes it easier
to whom is responsible for this: yer a frikkin genious sir/maam so simple and does an amazing job even with trailer more shallow (not as far in the water) as many have to be to load... helps when windy but is harder to line up right.... and think a time saved not backin up or havin to have wet feet when its below freezin.... impressed over here in Arkansas
My second time ever loading my boat onto a trailer was by myself, in a 50-80km/h nearly perfectly 90 degree cross wind, almost went insane trying to get it lined up wish I had one of these...
50-80 more like 5-10 no one is loading a boat in 50-80 dude. If they were and did they would tell you details not some vage bull shit of what you got going on here. That's like saying i crashed my car between 35 and 55 and lived without a scratch. Bcommon
@@andrewwescott3223 sorry I didn't finish the story, after 45 minutes of pulling my hair out I gave up and parked the boat in the slip and left it for the night.
Look again: the rope is doubled around the guide posts and wound onto the outside of the web drum - you can see it working after 0:30 - as the boat pushes the loop of the rope forward it's pulling rope off the drum, which winds in the web strap. I'm not sure this is the best solution to keep the bow centred, but it appears to work
Although putting a boat back on the trailer can be awkward in wind or with a cross current, the simplest solutions usually work best, and fail least often. Anybody who can assemble and align this system could probably fit better and bigger rollers on the trailer. Aim the boat at the centre of the trailer, and the rollers will grab the keel and hold you in place. Most trailers come with a few rollers, so buy and fit a few more.
Depending on how busy a launch can be, this could come in handy, but on windless days or day when the launch is light how much trouble is this to add and take down?
I’m not sure I understand the point. You still have to reach over the front and put the safety chain on. You still have to drive the boat onto the trailer straight. You still use the outboard to drive up the trailer, and you still have to use the winch for the last little bit of tension. Asides from maybe helping marginally to assist initial cantering of vessel to trailer, what exactly does this little complicated trailer addition achieve?
blackdiamondmarine ...actually I had a similar but far less complicated device that did not require the wires. I drove the boat straight up on to the trailer where the spring loaded snap hooked on from trailer to boat. I then stepped off the front of the boat and on to essentially dry land then drove off. Once on the wash down area I would chain the boat etc for travel. Launching was even easier. Before backing down the ramp, release safety larches and REVERSE the spring tension on the snap hook. Reverse the trailer into the water. Climb on and over the front. Apply a half second of forward power, the snap releases and the boat slides into the water. Berth the boat to the wharf, park the car and return. I would not own another boat without one.

Because most people don’t back the trailer in so far the water come over the wheel guards
@@cooperbraidwood7204 what the fuck magic loading boat do you have that you don't put the fenders in the water I bet your hull is fucked up.
Because they got hit in the head with the winch handle.
Because big manly men get triggered and cry when they see people doing things the smart way vs the hard way
Because its generally not a good idea to back the trailer this far into the water, nor a good idea to push the boat onto the trailer with the motor.

Berth the boat to the wharf, park the car and return. I would not own another boat without one.
Pete Smith did u post your invention to YTube?
Alan Whisler this is a very similar device...but not as good ...also look up the abc tv inventors review czcams.com/video/ZtZA-l1TLnU/video.html
If you have to ask all that no help will help you
I got to admit that is a pretty cool device.
Yep 15 years here also. Can’t find a price for it anywhere. Someone suggested it was around $1200. Ouch
