TIP: for beginners trying to back a trailer. If your reversing and notice to much trailer in your left hand mirror, go left hand down on the steering wheel. Same for the right hand mirror, to much ski? right hand down. When your straight go back slowly and use small movements on the wheel to keep the trailer straight. Most importantly DO NOT RUSH! when you start to rush of get flustered accidents happen.

Huge tip for backing a trailer. Open the hatch or drop the tail gate. It might look dump but you get a much better view, and you add all of your cool point back when you back all the way from the parking spot to the water without any bobbles.

So let me get this right, the bungs go in the bungholes. LOL 😂 . Brilliant. Love hearing the slang terms from other countries, fantastic 👌. Great video content keep it coming.

I have to agree. I’ve been doing this for years. The only thing I do differently is I hold onto the lanyard while I attach the safety chain and just pull it out when I’m done, just gives me that extra peace of mind. I can pull the lanyard of anything goes wrong Cheers mate, good video and certainly the quickest way to solo launch 👍

Best trick I found for reversing when retrieving …. Drop the tailgate to see the trailer 👌👌👌

Great video. One thing to note in some areas if there are rocks around your ramp backing off may cause you to suck something into your intake. Tend to just push mine off here for this reason and push it out before taking off. You obviously don’t have the same issue where you are your ramps look pretty clean
-
Don't overthink it. Just start backing slowly and make small movements and sync up the direction you want the trailer to go.
-
Thanks for the info. Got a used ski with a tow tap fitted and didn’t know what it was for, but glad to know now.
-
I’m new at this and launch / retrieve solo, pretty much exactly as you said. Leaving motor idling is a great tip I hadn’t tried.
-
I was so looking forward to this video and then once I watched it and realized guess what Mate, not all of us can afford an expensive jet ski with built-in reverse!

The is a very minor critique, but you are a pro and know how to do it. Beginners will have a hard time approaching the trailer and getting it lined up using as tight a turn as you did coming into the trailer. Beginners will need to line up the ski further out and come in at a straight line to the trailer. You didn't because it was second nature to you.

Hi Jet Tech, I just watched your tutorial on loading & unloading a jet ski. It is easier with a multi roller trailer. if you watch any videos from America about their trailers, they all have flat board guides. they make it so much harder too load.
-
I found this information very helpful. Moving to Florida in a few months, and planning on getting a Jet Ski.

Awesome video!!!! The best one on Youtube.
-
Lol, just the way you said that is so funny. I like the video very helpful though.
-
Good technique never actually thought about running it in fwd only con to this is sucking up debris as your in shallow waters and the fact that you’re washing out the bottom or the end of the boat ramp causing a deep rut. Over time that rut is gona end up being a drop off and I’d hate to drop a trailer axle in it!

Thanks for the vid big help , still nervous though
-
Awesome learning video thank you

Crikey!!! Put another shrimp on the barbi! mate
