OPERATION:

Starting from the loaded position, the canoe has been automatically secured and rests on two rollers. In unloading, the rear power roller is driven by a gear motor or a hand winch. As the roller turns, the canoe is automatically untied and driven rearward (by friction of riding on the roller). When the canoe center of gravity passes the rear power roller the canoe bow tilts up and is lowered by a line unwinding off the power roller. The bow is lowered in the bridle to the ground. Loading is the reverse action and almost completely automatic. The power roller turns in the opposite direction, winding up the line, picking up the canoe bow in the bridle and pulling the canoe forward to its secured position. Attach a safety line to the bow and you are ready to go!
