Great drone footage, so close on the guy with the rope busting his butt, almost went for a swim😂

Two reasons to look FWD to Spring...warmer weather & The Big Dan Show back in full swing!

Nice work helping the last guy out Dan.

That kid backing the trailer down the boat ramp did it 100 times better than I would have. And if that parking lot would have been full, it would have been 1000 times worse. He gets a standing ovation from me.

People who are new to boating may be a mockery but we’ve ALL been that person at one point or another. It’s not the water that’s unsafe it’s the boat ramps. But that’s with everything in life — go at your own pace and be respectful doing it, it’ll all be good.

They drive like this at the ramp, you know how it goes in deep water. Good Job. USCG Vet '68-'72, SP.

The trumpkins are always going to be a show. Running the boat into back of the truck is awesome. Real geniuses

Did you ever get the feeling some people shouldn't own boats? I only saw one child wearing a PFD! And that last boat, 400 hp on that small boat is overkill and luckily only the trailer winch stand bore the brunt of the damage saving the truck. Great video! Best Regards, Jay

The guy whose rope got tangled in the wheel, 🤣😂🤣. He stood there scratching his head like “I feel like I forgot something …oh the rope!” 😂🤣😂

Boating is one thing but backing a trailer is entirely something else.

Great video and early season is always a blast to watch. I think you and Madlin need to have a battle at the two different ramps and have the viewers vote who's video is better. 😅

I'm in the process of saving up money to buy my first boat and l'm enjoying watching your videos.

What is clear to me is the fact that there is so much to learn about boating do's and don'ts, particularly on how to launch and load a trailer boat, including the need to successfully reverse a boat trailer into the water.
I have 50 years of towing all sorts of trailers, so l'm okay with that aspect of knowing how to reverse a trailer, however in regards to boating experience, l have no knowledge at all.

I'm watching your videos like a hawk and now l can easily pick the experienced and inexperienced boaters.
I intend to pay for tuition from an experienced person before l buy a boat as l have no friends that own a boat.

Have subscribed to your channel, as some of the others that do what you do, talk far too much, yours is better than so many others and your filming is very good too.

Watching from Australia. 🇦🇺
Regards, Brian.

I grew up on a commercial fishing boat in Murrells Inlet, SC. I was fortunate enough to be taught super young. I was backing up trailers, launching, and loading years before I had my driver license. Not bragging my any means but watching these videos reminds me why my Dad and the old salties were so hard on me about learning skills like this. YouTube has nothing on the way they gave me hell when learning and laughed at me but it was all for good reason. It scares me how many people lack these skills at the boat ramp which tells me they are even more at risk once they leave the dock. The water is nothing to play with and will remind you the sec you try to.

[cumberlandquiltchic]

Happy Easter! ✝️🐇💐🐣 im loving be a new subscriber!great channel!

[half-breed]

The strumpet crashing just like his orange oompa loompa. Definitely worth the watch.

[Ally-Oop]

The boat with the golden looked sweet, lovely color.

[fmojosv]

I love this there are so many components of launching/landing a boat that you could turn it into a sport.

[johnthompson]

I've never seen this many boaters that can read the wind and drift of their boats. If you watch carefully, the guys that usually get it done first try, sat in their boats and felt the wind and current to gauge their path.
Most of these folks are just a lick and a promise.

Can we get Captain Maddie a chair? Come on Dan😁
