I trailered 100% in salt water.

My routine was:

Back the boat into its space.
Place vehicle in park.
Get hose and muffs.
Lower motor and attach muffs
Turn on water
Turn on motor.
Remove any freight or gear from the boat.
Clean up, wipe down the boat.
Stow all PDF's, dock lines and fenders.
Chock the wheels
Unhook the trailer and wiring harness.
Jack up the bow
Turn off the motor
Turn off the water.
Wind up hose and go inside.


Thanks! Sounds pretty much like my routine - except I detach the trailer from the car early on.
