Re: Boat wont slide?
I take full responsibility; in fact, I’m embarrassed that I let a kid near my trailer. The seven year old was trying to tell me his bro had unhooked the winch, but his Pidgin English was incomprehensible, so I just smiled. When he said, “I told you so” I could understand perfectly.<br />Yes, the glass was brittle, as it had been sitting in the Lahaina sun since the seventies.<br />I had that bugger flipped over and fixed within a week. The boys’ uncle decided to take it out, without asking, and did the same thing again.<br />I’ve fixed up and sold a couple small boats since then. My latest is a 57 Yellow Jacket with a 57 Merc Thunderbolt on it. Another $100,00 wonder, the motor has compression and all the harnesses and controls are there. Could be a beauty, bat wings and all.<br />I don’t think those kids ever did get off shore.
