Hey.

was thinking to put an electric winch at the front...that will be easy to load it right into the dodge grand caravan.
last night had to put my seadoo in there because they are powerwashing the darn basement in my condo.

so anyhow i was wondering how the heck to get the seadoo out. i thought i could pull it out but its pretty heavy. i cant even pull it out myself without just sliding it left to right untill i get it out to the bumper.

need ideas of how to get it out as easy as it would be to put it back in there with an electric winch.

Get a trailer and do it the right way. Saves on your vehicle, saves on your back.

Back in until the water enters the trunk and it floats - easy ;)

Damn you...I just wasted hours watching boat ramp follies on youtube :) There is some funny stuff on there.

Some of them are so bad you have to think they are staged, but the sad part is, they aren't!

If you really have to, how about a section of roller track in the back.

I watched two guys lift one into the back of the truck that was parked in the water last weekend. Then they hooked up a trailer and loaded the other two.
