And that boys & girls, is why we don't unstrap our boat until we're backed down the ramp and at the water's edge.

Bad day right there.

None of my boats ever slid, but I had a buddy whose did.  Creeped me out.

Interestingly, I watched Mr Boatnick drop his Fish & Ski on the ramp two days ago right after I launched (thank you very much).

He (and his whole family) seemed surprised & pretty upset.

The sheer number of confused faces was fairly epic.

There's a couple ramps around here I would not undo the bow strap until the boat was floating, but they were really steep.  There's one on my home waters that is so steep, I've seen smaller vehicles get dragged down the ramp.  Most state ramps are so shallow, I have to back the truck in where the water is half to the hubs on the back wheels.

I can see the Craigslist ad now in the Ohio area,  "like new" Nitro Z-21 for sale used only one year. Has been wrapped since new. LOL

 

BTW did anybody notice the skid mark on the road? ?

Yeah, I saw that.  It wouldn't bee too bad a repair, unless he wore clear through the hull.

How long do you think it took Fletcher to realize the waypoint he tried to fish was a bogus waypoint? I guess we give him points for thinking outside the box? LOL

This is pretty perplexing as there are no water marks on the pavement, so its not like he just got it out of the water.

Thats a pretty flat road, I wouldn't think it just slid off.

 

Drag racing? 

Swindle convinced him it would be like a tractor pull?

1st step in getting a fiberglass boat converted to a jet boat?

Well there goes your fishing considering you put the name of your lake for the whole world to see! I would have come up with a fictional name at least. ?

I hope the story comes out as to what in the hell happened! It sure does look flat. I bet his drivers seat changed colors.

I was behind a guy who dropped a brand new 25+ ft cruiser in a gravel parking lot. He was in line to launch and I was in line to load.

Look at the trailer. Looks to be rollers and not bunks

I have never seen rollers on a Bass Boat trailer. 

My brother in law had an old Sylvan deep v with a roller trailer. it sucked to load.

Looks like a fighter jet. Very cool. 

Even looks a bit like a stealth bomber/fighter with the exception of color. The wicked part, though, is when you turn the pic upside down. Looks really wicked that way.

Instead of playing with the shiny black thing on the right today, I dealt with the big brown pile to the left ( d**n you winter!).

It’s all good though because tomorrow I’m off to my parents for four days of chasing huge, dumb northern Ontario smallies, the bass thumb will be good and raw by the time I come home and that’s all right by me.

Surprisingly most of the lakes in the area we fish don’t have huge numbers of pike, especially the little ones. But there are some “nicer sized” fish that will find your bait every now and again ?.

43” and a thick girl too. That was a couple years ago near the end of September. I’d love to get back up there either later in the fall or right at ice out to see what else I can find, but so far I’ve only been there in the warmer season. It’s about a 3-1/2 hour drive from me, and I’m already 2-1/2 hours north of Toronto.

Home made out of 2 car hoods, some where around 1940 models. Edit to say: My girlfriends cousin contacted another cousin who fished out of this boat in the French Broad river near Asheville, NC, he told her the hoods were from 1940 Fords, as is the center section which is from the roof of a 1940 Ford.
