Before you launch at Carson Park
- Lines, fenders and plug: sort them out in the lot, then roll down to Carson Park ready to go.
- Stop when the boat starts to float at Carson Park, no deeper, and leave the vehicle in park with the brake set.
- Winch the boat on when you leave Carson Park, because prop wash from power loading undermines the concrete.
- Clean, drain and dry your boat and trailer before you leave Carson Park, so invasive mussels and plants don't travel to the next lake.
