Ok today at the ramp...

This ramp is off the beaten path love to go there and test motors and boat and stuff. well i was out there today testing my seaflea and we are playing around with it onshore for a few mins before we headed back out. well this guy came down to us to look at the ramp, its sand of course. So he seems satisfied that he can put his boat in there ( its a great ramp) backs his car down the ramp, bottoms out on the rock thats there haha.... goes to put his boat in the water, does not untie his boat so i yell at him after his trailor is floating. the guys pulls out and take the back straps off.. then he backs down again does not give his wife the bow line, does not undo his bow strap, so i go over take his bow strap off, take the bow line ( i wanted to get our boat out of the water) tell him to back down some more.. so what does this jack *** do slams the gas down in reverse just about takes me out shoots his boat off his trailor then stops an looks at me . i pull his boat free of his trailor and move it out the way, he goes to pull out, gets himself stuck in the sand ( treid to floor it again) so we get him out of there.. he parks and returns to his boat. i push him and his wife off he starts the motor and takes off, no tanks no nothing. so we proceed to get the truck and start to load the boat, when he comes screaming back doesnt kill his motor and trim up and coast in bottoms out his boat and motor and yells for us to get out of his way. well we couldnt think of why he wanted this.. then i thought about it.. he forgot his plug.

then he gets his car stuck trying to pull the boat back out again he slammed the gas in a hurry to get out.

Some people are just plain stupid and dont deserve to have a luxury like a boat.

I think I'd have let him call a tow truck second time around. People like that can't be helped. It's not even funny.

OMG, and his wife still stayed with him after all this....they need to make a boating class compulsory when you buy a boat. Tell them to hug the shoreline too so as not to ruin the glass for me :)

Aggravating as it was, didn't you get a little pleasure (schadenfreude) out of that guy being the one who forgot the plug, instead of a polite and considerate guy who just happened to screw up?
