Question:
All the pictures of this are shown on dry level ground. How will this work on a wet, slimy, slippery concrete boat ramp? The sides look like theyd grip the tire well, but bottom looks flat and has big gaps so not sure it would grip the muck well. Will this keep my car from sliding in the drink when launching my boat?! Its a small boat, but still.... Has anyone used it for this application?

Expert Reply:
On a slimy boat ramp there really aren't any traditional style wheel chocks I would feel comfortable recommending for you.
If you have a tandem axle boat trailer I would recommend the # UF21-001060 as this installs between your tandem axle tires and will prevent the trailer from moving. See install video.
Your best option would be to have at least one other person help you launch your boat. One to sit in the tow vehicle to cover the brake while the other launches the boat.
