So I am at the local boat ramp this past fall when an older gental man and his daughter pull up in a brand new shiny boat. We chat a minute and then its his turn to launch.
He backed into the water fine and floated his boat with plenty of slack in the trailer winch line. He gets out of the truck and gets in boat and fires engine to let it warm up. In the mean time his daughter gets in the truck, starts it and of course turns the radio and ac on.
After a few minutes he motions the daughter to pull the tralier up the ramp and park it. She puts truck in gear and rear wheel spins a little so she tromps the gas. She shoots up the ramp, not looking at dad and he is screaming at the top of his lungs to stop.
Why stop? He didn't unhook the winch line and she dragged his brand new boat about half way up the ramp before figuring out something was amiss. (all sots of people yelling at her by this time.) Tore the living crap out of the boats hull. Yeah, his language turned the air blue...
