Trailer Yachting?

What was all the other maneuvering about? He sure looked
"stuck" Why would he want that tractor to drift, he could have driven it to that spot? I think he was on ice/snow. If he had an adjustable 5th wheel, he could have slide it back to have more weight on the drivers earlier. Maybe it was all the way back.

At one point in the video someone edited a red circle around the second to the last set of wheels on the trailer where you can see they are cranked hard right while the other wheels are not.
I think that was acting as an anchor ( !! ) or brake ( in land lubber terms ) and was holding the tractor from any maneuver. I had to watch it a few times to pick up on it.

That is an interesting theory, Usually if trailer wheels are made to turn - most are not- they all turn not just a middle one?. I wouldn't be surprised if that trailer was set up with left and right trolley brakes controlling each side of the trailer brakes. Why would they need to jack one tire as an "anchor"?

I was amazed to watch the complicated maneuvering those transports had to execute just to get to the barge. Couldn't they repave or widen some of that asphalt surface?

Ooops! No good! Hope the vessel came out ok...

Just wrong on so many levels:
Wrong trailer for the job - not enuf axles;
Wrong place to bring it out of the water. Should have been on Travel Lift at a marina;
Two thin straps are not enough. I wouldn't want to be the trucker that has to call his insurance agent on this one.
And what did the guy in the dark parka think he was going to do - hold it up?!

Proves....you can't fix Stupid!

Cannot answer any of the questions above but, the boat is back on the water. I have no idea of the damage, but she is floating and running.

bleh, the way they are piloting that boat they will cause more damage... so.. if there is justice that boat will be broken once again.

When I hear "multi-million" I tend to think it's more than two million, that boat looks like it was closer to $1M than $2M to me. Am I just a bad judge, or was the youtube video title on the boastful end?

Yeah, the kid in the background talks about it being their father's vessel, implying that it's the owner shooting the video, and titling it "multimillion-dollar yacht"

I think you are correct, driver wasn't checking his mirrors very well! Why didn't they stop when they got it out of the water and secure it? Rookies?

I have a FASS system on my truck, will have one on my boat too. Meet the owner of FASS, I'm sure he wasn't pleased!

Successful splash, minor trailer tweaking...
