Jetski Loading/Unloading Trailer Mods?

[Juiced06GTO]

PSA about the bunk slides and locking the winch. I replaced the bunks on my 24' four winns trailer last year and did the poly bunk covers for them instead of carpet. The first time relaunching the boat with them on I backed up as normal, undid the safety chain on the bow eye, but left the winch strap connected. I reversed the winch and began to crank out the boat, it didn't move so I gave it a little shove.....

It proceeded to slide down the trailer, fast, unwinding the winch and spinning the handle right around until it found my elbow as a stop...I am still sorry for what came out of my mouth at the boat ramp that day.....
