I realize this is an old post but I have bought a 20' pontoon that I replaced the decking and carpeting on to put into our strip pit that has NO ramp. It is on a bunk trailer and I'm trying to figure out how to get it into the pit without tearing it up. The bottom seems to be about shin deep in muck with pretty shallow water of about foot or two. I just finished putting a dock in and had to wade out in it and was about grown deep 10 feet out from the bank with the much about shin deep all the way. I'm thinking I may have to remove the pontoon from the trailer to the ground and push it into the pit from there as I have never launched a pontoon much less in a pit without a ramp. I have no idea of how well my truck may be able to pull the trailer out of the muck even though it is a 4x4 with the 5.3 motor. Any experience here?
