When retrieving your boat, you should back your trailer into the water until the bunks or rollers are submerged enough to support the boat, typically around one-third to one-half of their height. This ensures that the boat can easily slide onto the trailer without getting stuck. The exact amount may vary depending on the size and design of your trailer and boat, so it's important to adjust based on your specific setup. Always ensure that the water conditions and slope of the ramp are taken into account for safe retrieval.
