On the Max I was clueless.
It’s not nearly as straightforward as my buddies mondo or outback, but you develop a feel for it. Am I perfectly straight each time, no... I’ll be off an inch one side or the other and occasionally perfect. I only trailer 200 yards so I am not very picky. I have a steep ramp and with the Max I can also unhook at the top and she stays put but I usually am the one launching by my lonely self and keep her hooked.

I do leave it in gear a bit to keep her pressed against the roller while I reach over and hook it up. Anything to keep the wife enjoying boating (I also do almost all the wipe down and boat prep etc ).
