This reminds me of one of the most painful things I've witnessed- watching our beloved 25' Cobalt being winched up onto a flatbed truck WITHOUT the trailer underneath. The boat came off the trailer at speed on I95 in South Carolina. Nobody injured, interesting experience. Boat/US insurance company was fantastic, paid big bucks to have the vessel repaired. They also paid to fix shoddy repair work that they had already paid for.

The grinding noise as it was being winched up was awful.
