This is a ramp story I will never forget.<br /> Were at the ramp, a busy 6 holer and in comes this tri-hull built sometime during the Kennedy era I would guess, loaded up with a couple families having a day on the water heading home. Well, they have a hard time getting tied up and eventually here comes the trailer, so they start to load the boat, it's a roler trailer and they are using a minivan to pull it. Can't quite get far enough in to drive it on so they're winching it on, the winch rope breaks, slides back off, then someone dropped their keys in the water, two more people fell in the water, kids are running all over the place, mothers' are screaming and the men are getting huffy, really holding up the ramp since Mom has the van and trailer all crossed up taking up two holes. They finally get the boat tied to the trailer with everything but bailing twine. They pull out and the boat rolls (sideways) upside down in the water. Someone tied a line from the port side across the boat, Docked on the Starboard, since it's held to the trailer well, it flipped upside down, the rope gave way on the trailer and there it sat..... upside down in the water.... I went and bought me a video camera on monday, I figure that might have won me 10K on funniest videos LOLOLO!!
