My wife is downright scary when backing up a trailer....

Well, it sounds like i'm not alone with a wife who cant back a trailer.

Fortunately I think we figured out what to do. We went out for the 2nd time today and I did as indykoch does and had my wife wait with the boat at the dock while I backed the boat and then pulled the boat onto the trailer. Went fairly well actually.

I even have the pics to prove it.

Nice looking boat Aaron, how long did it take for your kids to get the smiles off their faces??
It just doesnt get much better than that does it?

Congrats on the boat. It looks really nice. I have a 96 Z235 Talari and love it to death. Wife says its like a girlfriend. So. Good Luck and have fun.

My kids have definitely been smiling a lot.

Well, an undisclosed fact on my part so far is that my oldest daughter is named Mariah, and so all the kids refer to the boat as "Mariahs" boat. Shes in 7th heaven with her name all over the place including the upholstery.

My 5 year old son spent the majority of 3 days straight exploring and hanging out in the boat.

With family and neighbors oggling, oohing and aaahing over the boat, I guess you could say i've had a bit of a hard time wiping the smile off my own face.
