I haven't had my G3 out too much lately. Had a little "human plumbing problem" that put me out of condition for a bit.

I did get the boat out the other day. When I did my usual Power Recovery, the boat slid right up the new PVC toppers quickly and smoothly. When I killed the engine, she slid right back ......DOWN...... the bunks, too!
It seems that my PVC Gutter modification is a bit too slick. I was able to recover the boat easily enough. I had to leave my engine running while I ran forward and hooked up the winch strap. All in all, not a bad deal.
I might consider getting one of the Latch and Lock type of gizmos. I believe that if I drive all of the way forward, the device will "grab" my boat's forward eye and hang on.
