Default How could this happen?
I have not seen this picture before and I don't know where it was taken. A friend emailed it to me and I thought y'all would appreciate it. And I thought I had a bad day!

You don't need brains to own a boat, just the ability to write a check.

It looks as if the guy bending over in the picture is making sure that the drain plug is in. You know how embarassing it could be if they forgot that and the boat took on water...

Come on guys, I can't believe all of you so-called intelligent folks could not figure this out. When they developed the picture they put the negative in the machine backwards.

Close but no quite. They were holding the camera backwards.

Hell, that ole' boy was just checking the water depth to make sure he had enough to launch that Whaler. He would have been fine if not for that cupholder malfunction.

He was power loading the boat. Thats when you drive down past the boat and into the water as you power back up the ramp the boat just sits right down on the trailer and up the ramp you go. He must not have purcased an auto power loading kit for his truck which is very important.
