Open back seat for Don Pedro Saturday

My name is Jesse, I am the guy in the wheelchair that fishes out of a white triton. I would like to fish Pedro tomorrow, but getting the boat in and out of the water is holding me back, so if you can back a trailer and would like to fish tomorrow,let me know. Thanks
