  • Swimming from an aatv

    Anybody do much swimming from their aatv? How do you go about getting back in the machine, over the back or over the sides? Are 8 wheelers easier to get back into since they have more room in back to climb into? Are ARGOs easier to climb into from the back since the engine is in front? Thanks.

    Enter opposite to Anchor line

    Enter boat/ AATV opposite to the anchor line. Make sure anchor line is tight. I find that works best. I also find a boarding ladder or a rope line sling to put under your foot helps. I would imagine a larger aatv or 8x8 would be more stable side to side getting in. After the first person gets in have them counter balance the vehicle.
    Why do we waste tax money on bridges and roads when we can all just drive AATVs

      I went swimming out of my bigfoot once. I used the trailer hitch as a step, and just climbed right in the rear.

          Should I get my Diving gear and go after them? What kind of AATV were they
