queensland Early Morning Swim

[Dinodadog]

Ramp out at NPD has been very flat for the last few months, so forgetting I was on the new ramp, I undid the chain and the winch cable as I have done for the last few months and reversed down. While watching where I was going in the side mirror I noticed the boat get a bit of momentum and yes off it went, I flew out of the car and raced into the water up to my neck before I caught the rope.

Lucky for me I didnt hurt my back and lucky for me it was january and not july. By the time I got back to the ramp after fishing I had finaly dried out. Fishing did I mention fishing. My spot that had been fishing well had been flogged to bits over the last few days and the fish had moved on. Only took 2 pics all the other tiddlers were not worth a pic.

you could try looping the rope around the trailer so the boat will come off but not go too far!!

Yeah, now we are launching on the side ramp I'll make sure to leave the winch cable attached till I stop.
