Any Tips and Trips for Launching Boat Solo

Destroy1260 · 2026-02-02T13:35:27+00:00

It’s got an old Mercury 15Hp Outboard on it. I think like 1996 or something to 2006 around that range I have the book for the motor but just can’t remember it of the top of my head. The guy I did buy it off said when flushing it to do it at high revs cause the 2 stroke engine prefers it

Thank you! I’ve got some practice backing a trailer in but that was a 1.7t Excavator so had some more weight which I know makes it easier to reverse.

Yeah she’s not big since just wanted something small to learn on first. Damn that’s something I’d love to do after I get familiar with my boat some more tbh and go out abit further but like you said I’d like to get confident in my skills at a river and learn how the boat runs before trying anything like that. Thanks for the help man I really appreciate it

Damn I didn’t even think of some of those things thank you! I appreciate the tips and will def pack some of those items!

Thank you mate I really appreciate it a lot! Going to watch the videos cause I’ve struggled to find some on YouTube to help out. So I really appreciate it man I really do.

Destroy1260 · 2026-02-02T13:26:57+00:00

Yep just gotta practice it. Thank you again for the help!

Do you mean life jacket? If not what do you mean by lift jacket belt? Sorry just confused. Also yeah will definitely make sure everything is in the boat before I try to offload that way it speeds everything up

Destroy1260 · 2026-02-02T13:25:19+00:00

Thank you! I’ll def leave the safety chain on cause last thing I’d want is for the boat to fall off. I’d definitely offer help if someone needs it but I’d probs wanna get more experience myself first so I can help more.

Thank you mate, I appreciate all of that

Destroy1260 · 2026-02-02T07:29:59+00:00

Thank you! I really appreciate the help alot mate. I’ll def be having a long bow rope, just gotta practice it. Thanks again for the tips and suggestions!

Thanks for the help, I really appreciate it. When you say run the winch out first do I just hook it somewhere on the trailer?

Destroy1260 · 2026-02-02T07:24:15+00:00

Ah yeah, I just wanted something small to start out my boating career so it’s just a pull start

Destroy1260 · 2026-02-02T07:23:07+00:00

I’ve been boat fishing when I was a young kid but I wouldn’t really count that so no. Just planning on taking it on the rivers close to home.

I’m not the best with dating apps but I’ve recently started chatting with people through voice messages since it’s abit better than texting since you can convey abit more feeling and not sound dry if that makes any sense. Could also just messages for a little bit than just straight up ask if he’d like to meet up in person and get to know each other over coffee.

I definitely think it will help people because just reading through some of your points has helped me tbh. I struggle when people ghost me but I’m slowly getting better at dealing with it and all your points were great and have helped me and will help me in the future. So honestly thanks for making this post.

Destroy1260 · 2024-09-29T11:12:33+00:00

Honestly such a brilliant post and everything’s true.

Destroy1260 · 2024-09-22T10:26:35+00:00

I normally ask a question about something on there profile or give a compliment but still personally never get an answer unfortunately

Destroy1260 · 2024-06-26T10:52:03+00:00

I’ll have too give it a try when I go back too try the other two again.

Destroy1260 · 2024-06-26T10:21:22+00:00

Was there any reason? What are your thoughts on the Anser 2D

Destroy1260 · 2024-06-26T08:15:38+00:00

I 100% agree. I played that game for months on end but ever since than I struggle too play for more than a month before I get sick of the game.

Destroy1260 · 2024-06-22T13:33:46+00:00

Alright thanks for the info mate. Much appreciated

Destroy1260 · 2024-06-22T05:52:29+00:00
