hmmm - you're making it look easy.

Double check the namespaces in which you've declared
and implemented your save/load functions.  It's very easy
to get that wrong.  Also double check your arguments.  Note that
the serialization library uses an obscure technique
to implement the equivalent of partial function template ordering.
This could also be confusing.

Feel free to submit your example as a "case study" to the
serialization library documentation.
