In Response To: Well you know... (Sumner -- Mac 26S -- Blanding, UT)

I have 4 scratches, each about 4 feet long right through the gel coat from ramps where the goal posts are underwater.

Just didn't want you to have the same experience. It was not obvious to me the first few times I lauched/retrieved. The weight of the boat and how wind affects it whilr trying to keep it in line when retrieving was an eye opener.

Didn't mean to sound critical (if it was me) - just trying to help...
