    Default Trouble launching

    I know it should be in the joke section, but I reckoned the boaties would find it funnier....







    He just bought a new boat and decided to take her for the maiden voyage.

    This was his first boat and he wasn't quite sure of the exact Standard Operating Procedures for launching it off a ramp, but he figured it couldn't be too hard.

    He consulted his local boat dealer for advice, but they just said "don't let the trailer get too deep when you are trying to launch the boat".

    Well, he didn't know what they meant by that as he could barely get the trailer in the water at all! Anyhow, here's a picture below.

    You're gonna love this guy!!!

    Folks, you just can't make this stuff up!

    And once again, these people breed...and on occasion they vote!
    Scary!
