linweir Posted August 5, 2015 Report Posted August 5, 2015 Total weight of my boat rig (boat/motor/trailer) is about 1800 pd. Using electric trailer mover to launch it to water is probably OK. My concern is if it's possible to pull loaded trailer with boat back up to boat ramp after using it? Boat ramp has an incline, but my boat rig is not heavy. I am looking for power dolly or trailer mover? Any suggestion?
Roy Posted August 5, 2015 Report Posted August 5, 2015 Why can't you use the tow vehicle? Is it a public ramp or a private one?
linweir Posted August 5, 2015 Author Report Posted August 5, 2015 I store my boat in a resort. Boat ramp is not far, Sometimes I couldn't have a vehicle with towing hitch.
Ralph Field Posted August 5, 2015 Report Posted August 5, 2015 If the owner of the resort has a tractor, then I would ask him to lend a hand.
Fisherman Posted August 5, 2015 Report Posted August 5, 2015 I tried one of those a couple years ago, claimed it could move 5000lbs. Maybe downhill with a stiff breeze on pavement. As soon as it hit grass or the slightest bit of an up incline, forgetaboutit.
