All good advice. My 15 Dauntless is pretty light weight so I don't
"power" it on. I've found that if I have just about 8" of bunk showing above the water she will slide right up so I can attach the winch cable and bring it up the last 2 feet or so. Too deep and the bow wants to go under the winch, too shallow and the boat stops short and is hard to winch.

It took about 6 times to get this figured out....just keep trying.
