Way back in the day I could put a fully loaded 8 canoe trailer precisely where it needed to be, in my sleep, but putting my lil tin boat in Champlain last year was quite a bit less artful. One of 2 putins I've made in last 10 years. Anyone in their prime trailering years are obviously going to appear to not need help. All the others could probably use a hand. Ask once if they could use an assist & hang a bit to allow their pride to abate and they accept. I wouldnt drive the truck or their boat but I can be a good lookout.
