OH boy...I'm fishing at the local boat ramps down here, and I notice a acura integra little sports car, with a fairly good size trailer on the hitch, I think to myself...what in the living hell is going on here? Anyway I go back to my fishing, and about an hour later I see this beat up old center console with 4 guys in it, smoking like a chimney coming down the channel. For some reason it clicked right then and there, and I said Oh my god, this is gonna be a sight to see. Well they tie up to the dock and I see this young kid walk over to the ... (you guessed it) Acura Integra, and I hear the typical teenage loud muffler and bass coming from the car, I am thinking...where is a camera when you need it. Well the fella who was driving the Integra decides he's gonna show off in front of his friends and do donuts in the parking lots with a boat trailer (thank god my car was far far away). After a few rounds of that, Florida Finest pull up and proceed to write them a ticket or two. Anyway, so the guy attempts to back the trailer down into the water, after at least 15 tries, I walk over there and direct him how to do it, all the while trying to figure out how this little sports car is going to pull a 18ft center console out of a STEEP *** boat ramp. So anyway, they get the boat on the trailer, and the fella decides the best thing to do is dump the clutch in 2nd gear and race out of the ramp with the boat....uhm...yeah...that didnt work out very well. Anyway, after he figured out that dumping the clutch wasn't a good idea on a slippery boat ramp, he tries his best to get this boat out, but god rest his soul his little sports car wont do it. So, they take the boat off the trailer tie it back to the dock, and park the integra with the trailer, off to the side out of everyones way. About 20 minutes later I hear tires squealing, bass jamming, and people raisin hell...I look back over towards the integra, and there is a Rousch Mustang over there and they are all talking. After about 15 minutes of this going on...the integra backs down into the ramp again (this time he got it in 4 tries), they put the boat on the trailer, they hook a tow strap up to the axle of the mustang, and to the front axle of the integra...and...you guess it....decided that 2 cars pulling at the same time might work. How they managed to get that to work, I will never know. After all this was over and done with, as they were leaving the boat ramp, they got stopped by a city cop...god only knows what that was about.
I used to have a 15ft flats boat and towed it around with a 1985 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera...it worked nicely. But...a little acrua integra trying to pull a 18ft center console fishing boat
.
Some people I swear!!!
