For anybody new to boating, this is how NOT to do it.

 

I love that pic... but that is a repost x3

 

Looks like to me his truck must have been dirty, so he figured he would kill two birds with one stone.

 

It's always funny to see that pic. One of my favorite youtube searches is "boat ramp launching mishaps". I'm at the ramp almost every weekend during the season launching my boat. I need to video some of these knuckle heads one time. I'm usually laughing too hard or getting irritated cause I want to get out on the water and I'm being held up my rookies.

 

the guy figured his truck would float, and he would just push it around with the boat... why disconnect it... drive in and go...

poor guy left his window open and it leaked.... he'll remember next time

 

Thats why I use the parking brake. Even though I have an automatic.

 

You have to forgive the guy, He's from Arizona, We all know there is no water in Arizona.... lol

 

I gotta find the pic my buddy had when they were launching their 38' fountain and the trailer come off the ball, snapped the chains and the boat and trailer went into the drink... they used the motors to drive the trailer and boat back up the ramp to the truck lol

 

I watched that happen! I was there! You can see me in the pic! That's my 4 story boat in the background! I'm there on the top watching and laughing;>

 

No kidding?! I got the pic in an email and thought it would be fun to share. Do you know exactly what happened?

 

Im going to have to take some pictures of people at the boat ramps around here this summer.. there is some funny stuff that goes on.
Last year some one missed a boat ramp that was wide enough to launch 4 boats side by side. They were hung on the rip-raft around it...Still don't know how they managed to get the truck and the trailer all the way on it.

 

hopefully that sheriff gave him a ticket for being tied up for more then 15 mins!!

 

I think suger-rush was doin' a little bit of leg pullin there FN. Don't encourage him to make up any more stories there - his nose will get so long we'll have to take him out in the parking lot to even get him turned around.

 

Just leg pulling, but if you want another story I can tell you how I pulled that boat through the rocky mountains with my F-150!

 

Its a shame thats its an F150 in the water,not something that needs to drown like a chevy or dodge
