Wendy, I understand your frustration backing up the trailer. We had a discussion on another network site that gave some great advice. You can find it at http://www.boatbrevard.com/forum/topics/trailering-tips. Hope it helps or that a few of our other users can offer more help.
Wendy, It takes a little practice but I learned by putting my hand on the bottom of the steering wheel and turning the wheel in the direction I want the trailer to go. Works real well, try it.
