Back the trailer into the water until the last 2" of bunk boards are still out of the water. Get on pontoon boat and drive it toward the bunks board you can still see above the water, slowly. Even though you are going slow, you will still have enough momentum to overcome the drag of the bunk boards that are above the water. These will help hold the boat in place while you go to the front, if you don't have help, and connect the winch hook. If there is a lot of current you may need to leave the boat in forward gear, pushing it against the trailer, until the winch cable/strap is connected to the boat. Slowly pull the boat out of the water, checking as it come out to see if the boat is centered in the bunks. If it is not you may need to back it back into the water enough that the back end floats, so you can center it on the bunks.

How fast will a fifty horsepower outboard motor go?

It mostly depends on the weight or displacement of the craft you put it on. Put it on a little 10 foot flat-bottomed speed boat, you might get 60mph. Put it on a 30 foot pontoon boat, you will do good to get 15mph. It also makes a huge difference what pitch propeller you install. You must match the pitch both to the HP of the motor as well as the size of the boat. Of course, the absolute fastest it will go is if you drop it out of an airplane. Then it will go around 220 mph!

What is the main function of a boats safety chains?

A boats safety chain is used to prevent accidents such as a boat slipping from its trailer. This can occur when the ratchet mechanism (used to act as a stopper on the winding crank) breaks. I've seen this happen once at my boatclub. A guy tried to put his boat down the ramp and didn't have his safety chain connected and his boat just slid off the trailer and onto the concrete ramp.

Explain why a tractor trailer can be filled completely with butter but only partially be filled with steel?

Trucks are limited to weighing 80,000 pounds. On my truck, I could put 47,000 pounds of freight in the trailer. (I once hauled a truckload of Budweiser. They put beer in the trailer, weighed me, then put even more beer in the trailer. By the time I left, I weighed 79,200 pounds.)Since butter is far less dense than steel, you can put more of it in a trailer.
