Sure those that know better are going to be wise and fresh... in which case you just walk away but those that didn't realize they were doing something harmful will listen, and probably ask for suggestions.....

I've only been helping a friend put his boat on his trailer for the past 5 years or so. And I loaded my own boat on a trailer for the 1st time earlier this year. Previously, I just left my boats at a marina for winterizing/storage. I have to admit that I was taught to power load, never aware of or thought about the damage it was doing.
From my observation at the ramps, there are many more folks like me who are ignorant/clueless or whatever we want to call them who just don't know of any other way to do it.
I wish I had known about this before now. Going forward, I will be more respectful of the proper way to load a boat on a trailer.
