[QUOTE="NewportNewsMike, post: 324490, member: 1593"] I know a lot of folks who swear by power loading - but there are many good reasons NOT to power load. In some places it is illegal - I cannot re-call where in my travels I saw the signs, but posted at the ramp was a notice that there was a fine for power loading (for those who got caught obviously). Whether it it is posted as illegal or not, power loading is hard on ramps. It causes big wash outs at the end of the ramp. I would follow some of the suggestions above and learn all about non-power loading your boat. Have a look at the two below links for more info: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q31Wl7Ten5o https://www.dnr.state.mn.us/water_access/powerloading.html Mike in Newport News VA [/QUOTE]
