Assembly
It is recommended that your trailer has guide posts to hold your
boat in position after launching.

If you do not have guide posts, you can still launch your boat with a
2nd person holding a dock line on the stern of the boat.
Assembly Steps
1. Attach the tie wraps to the launch tube/ container by inserting the
heavy duty tie wraps through the pre-drilled holes in the tube. The
easiest way is to reach into the tube with your hand and push the end of
the tie wrap through the 2nd hole. Make sure that the head of the tie
wrap is pointed in the right direction to be able to attach it to the trailer
as seen below.

2. Attach the launch tube to the trailer at a 45 to 60 degree angle
pointing at the boat, as seen below. Find a place to affix the tie wraps on
the winch post opposite from the winch crank.
3. Attach the rope end stainless spring hook to a fixed loop on your
trailer as seen below. If you do not have a secure place on your trailer,
you can use a 1/2 inch or larger galvanized welded eye bolt. You should
1st measure the depth of your winch post or trailer frame to make sure it
goes all the way through with a nut on the other side and a washer on
both sides.

4. Attach the shock absorber end to the bow cleat of your boat.
5. When you are finished it should look something like this.

6. Before launching your boat, be sure to detach your winch strap.
7. Now for the moment you have been waiting for! Go ahead and launch
your boat!

8. After launching your boat, you can use Launch Assist as a dock line
with a built in shock absorber! Simply detach the rope end from the
trailer and tie off on the cleat.
