Works better than imagined Designed so back third sinks so you could just drive up onto the ramp. I’ll actually add a little more floatation all the way to the very back 1/4 just to have the perfect amount of front and middle bouyancy. ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2021/01/full-30144-82470-deceda48_600a_49c1_b81f_9cdf51caf892.jpeg)
