Re: Am I a Dork

I answered "yes" but my wife would have answered "no."

She pitches in when I ask for assistance to make repairs or improvements, barely drives it (only to know how in an emergency), and doesn't have a login to iboats, I trumped her opinion here. If she sees this post, I will pay immensely. Maybe she will make me go sit in the boat!:D

You can probably go further, more technica,l and add some lowrider hydraulics to your trailer, that would simulate the water.

Were you wearing a patch over one eye and yelling "Ahoy matey, methinks the seas are calm today. Fetch me another flask o' rum!."

if not, you're not a dork.

I'm not only a driveway Boater Im also a driveway skier.

I extend a ski rope from the back of the Boat and put on a single ski Pretending to go inside and outside of the Wake. I also make swooshing noises.

I've sat in the boat and listened to the stereo too, the wife thought I was nuts. The boat is in the garage though, so I doubt any neighbors have discovered my relaxation spot yet.

Re: Am I a Dork

My first future son-in-law used to keep his pontoon at my house out in the country. I was watching tv one Saturday night and kept seeing cars pulling in the driveway, but nobody was coming in the house...

I finally looked outside and saw about 10 people sitting on his pontoon drinking beer, and listening to music. What did I do? I asked him if he had enough life jackets for me to get on too..... lol

Re: Am I a Dork

Ok time for me to share.... I just finished a total rebuild of a Bayliner 16' capri... all my neighbors thought i had flipped my lid ( i did but didnt tell anyone lol)... I just grinned at them. Well she is done and i love nothing better than popping the bimini up, getting in the drivers seat, turning on the radio, and watching the sunset.....
The only problem is i live in Texas and it friggin hot lol so i prop up my garage fan at the front of the boat ( to simulate spped on the water) and enjoy my boat!

so I say to all of the boat sitters.... Enjoy your boat, to hell with the neighbors.. there just jealous of my greatness!
