I’ve been teaching my wife how to handle a boat for 45 years, since she was a teenager, and she’s pretty dang good at it now. She can handle a 50’ sailboat alone at night, in a rough ocean while I go to sleep. There aren’t many people I’d trust to do that. She’ll call me if she needs me, or detects any possible problem. But I still back the trailer. I can be in and out in less than a minute. She ain’t real good at that. That’s OK, she’s very good at other things:smiley:
I took this picture about halfway between Georgetown, Exuma and the Dry Tortugas. She was 20 years old then. Now she’s 60 and got a lot of sea miles under her. But she still doesn’t back trailers very well. That’s OK. The biotch can still handle about any boat, anywhere. She’s had a lot of practice Can’t have everything:smiley: I’ll back the trailer. She can take care of the boat.
