just one more story please read this one
The stories members are telling remind me of a summer back in the late 70s I was just a young teenager when this happened. My family put in at Harrison bay state park with no trouble at all nice day all around ok so we leave the bay and head up river for a mile or so when my dad notice a boater waving a towel he heads over to see whats up and as we get close we can see his problem. we pull along side and this man say he left the same boat ramp we just left but had only been running around for about an hour and was out of gas he said his tank was full when he put in and he could not figure why the boat used so much gas, the guy he bought it from thursday said it was easy on gas. My dad while trying not to laugh out loud asked if he knew he was to take boat off trailer when he put it in the water, yes he was running with the trailer still tied to the boat, this man only said he could not figure how he was going to rehook to the trailer when he wanted to take out. feeling for the guy dad towed him back to the ramp but didnt take the time to get him out of the water. I am almost 50 not and I cannot remember anything that will top that for (being goofy) thanks for reading.
