How to get home after you blow out a spring on the ramp
Mitz:
What you can do with a 4x4 post and gorilla tape!
My spring broke while putting in for a tournament as soon as the boat floated off Ping.. Still fished and while out there found some drift wood. Got me 20miles home without and issue.

Ingenuity at its finest! Good job with the temporary fix @Mitz \o/
Jimmy RodandReel:
HA HA! That's the same thing we had to do a few years ago on the way back from the lake. We hit a pot hole and the spring broke right at the eye. The tire burnt all the paint off the fender before we could get in stopped. :-[
AND it was 2:00am! It sucked but we did the same thing with some scrap 2x4's we had in the truck and some creatative use of ratchet straps and got it home. Yes I feel your pain. \o/

It's amazing what can be done with ratchet straps and gorilla tape.
