Okay. Need a little advice here. I'm newish to manual autombiles (motorycles are a different matter) and one of my father in laws has a pontoon boat that I'm going to need to pull in and out on occasion form a nearby lake. The ramp and trailer are such that to get it on or off the trailer will require the exhaust on my JKU to be partially submerged. Not a concern if it is running but what if I fumble and kill it? Then I probably shouldn't restart it since I run the risk of sucking water into the engine (I'm guessing the level of danger depends on how much of the exhaust is actually submerged.)
I've been thinking of using 4 low to back the trailer up or pull the trailer out since I shouldn't need to clutch to shift from reverse,neutral, & 1st correct?
Feel free to tell me I'm an idiot as long as you tell me why I shouldn't be concerned/what I should do instead (other than using a pick up which will actually be the primary tow vehicle for the boat)
