Re: there\'s laughing and laughing...
Sounds like a typical first day boating, sounds like my first day boating.
I reversed the trailer down the slipway could not understand why i would not float off the trailer, only to remember i'd forgotten to put the bung in, so got back in to my 6mth old freelander to pull it back out and my clutch and fly wheel assemble broke, ended up with friends shogun pulling me the trailer and boat all out.
The boat must have taken a lot of water on as it took about 15 mins to drain, then put the bung in reversed it back in, it floated of the trailer, pulled by rope upbeach at side of slip climbed on to bow walked round the side to get into the boat , and slipped and fell in... Apperently a typical first day i was told.....
Believe me it only gets better.... ENJOY..
