When I drove a towtruck in the Discovery Bay area, I would occasionally show up to a scene where the trailer left the truck, and the boat left the trailer, and at the end of a big white stripe on the asphalt you would find the boat... Got to be pretty good dead-lifting those with the boom of a towtruck and nylon straps, you just extend the boom over the boat, cradle it with the straps, lift, and walk the trailer under it. If you have any access to a towtruck, it's safe and fast. :smt003
Let me explain something to you. Um, I am not "Mr. Lebowski". You're Mr. Lebowski. I'm the Dude. So that's what you call me. You know, that or, uh, His Dudeness, or uh, Duder, or El Duderino if you're not into the whole brevity thing.

That beats jacks and cribbing!
