My buddy picked me up one morning to go fishing. He had a 20' welded aluminum boat with a 150 on it. He was pulling it with a datson pickup. I was leary, but figured it would be okay. We launched in Hackberry, no problems. When we got back to the ramp, it was low tide. We trailered the boat. He tried to pull out and sure enough, the truck wheels just spun on the wet cement. In fact every time he tried the truck actually slid further back. I tried pushing the truck. It would not budge. Luckily there were a lot of people there. By the time we finally got the boat out we had two guys jumping in the back of the truck and four pushing. Never again.
