Message: <blockquote data-quote="SDMF" data-source="post: 490128" data-attributes="member: 412">Actually, #1 should be:1.  GET OFF YOUR DAMNED PHONE!!!  Don't be yapping on it, don't be scrolling on it, don't be texting on it, don't be buying your license, don't be trying to download apps for maps/contours, crank bait depths, running electronics, running your trolling motor, monitoring your lithium batteries, etc.  Do any/all of that stuff somewhere and sometime when you're not in line to load/retrieve.4.5.  If you have to open the battery hatch and/or take the hood off of your motor, get off the ramp.  Diagnose and fix once you're out of the way.8.5, if you don't have a boat/trailer, get out of the boat/trailer parking spots.8.75, I think everyone likes to see kids having fun on, in, and/or around the water, please have the courtesy and good sense to have your children doing those fun things away from where boats are launching/retrieving.  If you ignore that courtesy/responsibility, there's a fair chance they may receive the messaging from an adult that isn't you and that message may or may not be delivered within your preferred parenting style.Then get your rig out of the way.  Don't say in line, get out of the way including if it means going to the back of the line.  Don't expect your partner to finish their "business" before It's your turn, get out of the way.  Don't block the road/trail down to the ramp by parking @ the outhouse, get out of the way!This isn't about me and my wish to get on the water sooner, it's plain old manners vs. rudeness.  If you have to go to the back of the line, you've inconvenienced yourself and whomever you're fishing with.  If you hold up the line you're inconveniencing every rig and it's occupants behind you.Everybody @ the ramp wants to fish/get on the water just as much as the people in every other rig @ the ramp.  Issues @ the ramp are NOT about who's the fastest off/on the trailer.  Issues @ the ramp occur when you begin to WASTE the time of everyone behind/around you.</blockquote>
