#22 Having someone else load the trailer for you

Getting boats to a regatta is a process. The driving there is the easy part, getting your equipment and boats properly loaded on the trailer is the tricky part. When taking a lot of boats, it's like a puzzle and possibly the most annoying puzzle you've ever done.

You would think by making a map of where the boats will go on the tailer would make things go smoothly. But, as we know, people aren't perfect and boats get left out of the map, boats end up being wider than anticipated or there's always that one crew that realizes they've forgotten to load their riggers on a fully loaded trailer.

What should be about a 1 hour job can easily turn into a 2 hour struggle. However, there are those times when you are one of the last races of the day. The last thing you want to do is load all the boats after a hard race. As you approach the trailer, you see all the boats are already loaded and yours is the last one that needs to go on. Thanks to your team mates everything is all set to go and your boat is last piece needed for the puzzle.

Awesome!

It's a team effort!

Don't forget to strap...There's a reason why this boat is named Road Rash!
