Re: Boat ramp, RANT!
Well had mine today.<br />My local lake has one of it's ramps that is 4 or 5 boat wide and today when I got there, and after getting my boat ready to launch, it must have been time for #1 boyfriend to teach #1 girlfriend how to back a, what looked like a 24 or 30 CC down the ramp for her first time.<br /><br />Now this is at 11 this morning and getting quite busy.<br /><br />Needless to say, she took up the whole ramp while he is in boat shouting out directions, which she in turn, did the complete opposite.<br /><br />I rolled my windows up and turned the a/c on and looked at my watch.<br /><br />I sit there 23 minutes watching her have this Ford Explorer and boat all over the ramp, him hanging over the side shouting and her turning the wheel the other way.<br /><br />Finally, he has her pull out and he gets out of the boat and gets in the truck and backs it in.<br /><br />Whoops. He forgot he had unhooked it from the front.<br />Yep, you guessed it.<br />Away it floats.<br /><br />Well, he hits the water and retrieves it.<br />By this time, I am not alone waiting to launch.<br />We now have 8 other boats waiting.<br /><br />He gets the boat and drags it over to the side and ties it up and then goes park and runs real fast back to the boat and gets in and heads off.<br /><br />Man, wish I had the video camera with me.
