Hi,
A number of lakes I fish strictly forbid power loading at the lauch sites, and I have no choice but to winch the boat in. I have a new Z7 I'm learning to do this with, and I tried having 2/3 of the bunks submerged and 1/3 out of water (which worked with my old boat). It was extremely difficult to crank in using the winch. With my old boat, if I would have the bunks completely submerged, the boat would not settle properly and usually end up crooked on the trailer.
Do any of you have experience loading bass boats where power loading is prohibited? How much of the bunks do you submerge?
Thanks,
Mike
