If you wack someone's parked trailer even if it is an old one like mine, a simple note with an offer to cover damages is the considerate thing to do. My boat and trailer are old but they are mine, I would not even ask you to cover the ding you put in my fender. Just a simple "My Bad" would work... Learn to pull and back a trailer OR keep one of those pads of sticky notes and a pen in your truck!
See you on the lake and have a great day!

AGREED! I would jump kick someone that did this and decided not to provide a note for help to cover the repair.

I’ve had my current boat for about 14 years. I’d say the trailer has been hit about a dozen times and my vehicle twice. Mostly at ray roberts and never once has there been a note.

My trailer fender was bashed hard at monterrey ramp at rayburn. It's bad enough I get asked about it everytime someone sees it. They automatically assume I ran into one of those parking lot poles. Did I receive a note, nope.
I can backlash toilet paper.

Happened to me at Jordan on Ray Roberts. Damaged my fender and I had to buy 2 new tires. Just hope what goes around comes back on whoever did that and just carried on like they never did anything.

I got accused of it and it never happened. I had a wrap with my business on my truck. Guy calls me while I'm on the water and pissed as all hell and threatening me and my truck. I tell the dude he's out of his mind and race back to the boat ramp. I looked at his trailer and all over my truck and had to point out the obvious to him. Talk about almost coming to blows.

If someone does leave a note and offer to cover expenses, call them back and offer to go buy him a beer and make friends... I'm cool with people that make honest mistakes and attempt to make it right. It's the folks that don't try to make it right that I have an issue with

Wow, been hit a dozen times?
I've owned two dozen boats over the last 30 years and had two hit while parked at the ramp.
