    This is the way I do it. Except for the hand signals. We have 2 way radios and it makes it so much easier to talk then guess what the person in the boat is saying. Especially in Havasu and there is a wait. You can talk to each other to know where you are at.

    I've always done it Wendi's way with no problem, however, it has been impossible to teach anyone else to successfully do it that way. The best way I was informed worked magic for my lady friend who could never get the hang of it and it involved the side mirrors. Simply put, I told her whatever mirror the boat or trailer appears in, point the steering wheel at it till it starts to go away. Instantly it clicked for her and never had a problem again. The different ways we all work...
