Always be careful of slippery slipways!

Just read an article on the local news site about what happened to some poor guy on the very last day of the fishing season this year. Good reminder to always be ware of algae build up on the ramp, esp. at low tide in salt water! have a look: http://vocm.com/news/truck-and-trailer-sink-during-boat-launch/

That would be easy to do. My truck is 4x4 and I/we have a tendency to think a 4x4 truck is bullet proof and can pull or climb anything.

Yep,.. Gotta be careful with saltwater ramps. I have driven away from a few (one because there was already a truck at it that had slid in up to the roof. I didn't want to be #2 for the day.)
