[QUOTE="guywhofishes, post: 221320, member: 337"] I have a roller (ShoreLand'r) that doesn't seem to roll all that easily (a good thing IMO). I don't float my boat at all - I stop just shy of floating. I climb in, start the motor and while it's warming I go forward and uhook chain and pre-loosened strap from over the bow, then power off the trailer in reverse. That often leaves enough dock length remaining behind the trailer to allow me to quickly back away from trailer and away from dock. Once clear of the trailer I can immediately put tiller in forward and move nose forward to near the dock. I then put the Talon down, secure the nose to the dock, jump out, and park. I can do the same upon return at most dock/ramps. That way I only clog up one lane when I am alone.

At that point if it goes in it will land in the water safely. [/QUOTE]
