  • A boating lesson in humility.

    Boats are like women. As soon as you think you have things figured out, something comes along to make you feel pretty ridiculous.

    Wasn't it just last night that I was bragging on myself about how good I've gotten at launch and retrieval of my boat? Just remember y'all, don't get too full of yourselves because God will find a way to knock you back.

    Today I took a couple of prospective buyers out for a run on the Ugly Mudda. Everything was fine as I dumped her in. As I exited the truck though, I remembered . . . . . DOH!!!!!! THE PLUG!!!!!!! I FORGOT THE PLUG!!!!!!!

    Last time I did that was the first time I ever used a ramp instead of a hoist over 5 years ago.

                        Where ever I am is where the party is....that and I get stuck trying. Then I just start drinking until the boat floats!

                          Let's have a race. 5 cases of beer chilled in coolers in each boat. Shotgun start. SLP to Mud Cut via Bird Island to the backside of Titlum-Tatlum and the porch at Blockade Runners. First one with all 5 cold cases on the porch wins!
