When the
ramps are frozen, be sure to have the proper tools to clear the ice and
sweep any debris away. Also, be sure to salt the ramp area before
and after you pull your trailer out. Make sure to stop as soon as your
trailer clears the water so that all the water drains back into the lake
or river and not on the ramp incline or parking area where it can
re-freeze and create a hazard for others. Always be sure you will be
able to get your boat out before you put it in the water in icy
conditions. Never back your vehicle or trailer on to ice such as what is
pictured above. 1/4/2002 |
