What length is your boat and trailer?

Anything under 16' will flit side to side with a small error. Only make small corrections. Oversteering has disastrous results going backwards. Also, pick a spot you want to make sure to stay to one side of, if it is something you can't cross(wall or edge of ramp) measure 2 ft out from it in your mind, and use that line in your mirror as a guideline.

I can back a 16' or longer trailer through an opening that has an inch to spare on both sides without hitting either side.

A 12' trailer or smaller makes me look like a retarded monkey half the time.

I will add, a double axle trailer is much, much easier than a single axle trailer.

I now see why my Dad made me back up and down our 100 yard long drive way with bushes along each side. Was pissed at the time but now grateful he made me do it.
