FrankB,
Great stuff absolutelt priceless.
I was at a ramp in florida the other day. Dropped my friend off to get the truck and I idled back out to wait for him. At the dock was a guy with his boat and their trailer was already in the water. I didn't pay much attention to them figurung they just had to put the boat on the trailer and pull it out of the lake. The next thing I know the same guy is now in the boat, drifting away from the ramp without power. Now hes trying to use a short rowbaot paddle to get this big tri-hull back to the ramp (with very little success). Another boat comes over and rescues the guy by bringing him back to the dock. They get the boat on the trailer and pull the boat out at a good clip and end up dragging the outboards skeg for about 6'. Not as astonishing as the above but it still made for some pretty interesting viewing.
