Doug’s Lesson has step-by-step instructions with explanations of what works and what doesn’t and why, as well as tips to make it even easier. For example, one of Doug’s tips will ensure your trailer goes the right way when backing down the ramp. This one simple tip will avoid the trailer heading off in the wrong way on the ramp. It is so simple, you’ll wonder why you never thought of it and it will improve your ramping instantly.

Another of Doug’s many tips in the Lesson will prevent your boat rolling off the trailer prematurely and crashing on the dry ramp instead of in the water—especially on busy days when there is a lineup of boats waiting for the ramp. It is important and considerate to get in and out as quickly and efficiently as possible.

Knowing “How” makes all the difference!
