Went to a new lake yesterday which was suppose to have some nice Muskys. It had a very steep and long ramp to water.<br /><br />Got her close but angle not quite so I figured to pull her up a little. My hauler is a roller operation. Well foot slipped off brake and compressed pretty hard on gas which made me lurch very quickly. Heard a thudddd and when I look back boat was at a 45 degree angle and resting on its laurels....never had a problem before and never worried about leavn safety lach in place..<br />Both engines in upright hold so missed props but speedo is gone...could of been worse I guess..from now on latch will be left on until I'm sure of my landing..no muskys either....

Re: Moon Launch

Count your blessings you could have been in reverse with the bumper at the waters edge when you thumped the gas!<br /><br />BTW the signature is looking good and you have mail
