Chuck doesn't have this problem I hope, but I did leave my transom
plug out once. So I got it on plane and pulled the plug and sucked the
boat dry, put back the plug, and just went fishin'.

Second time I put the Yukon in the water, I forgot the plug. � �The boat
was still on the trailer when I noticed it.
Didn't have to worry about $%$# plugs with the sailboat.

I've Got a good one for you guys. �The first time we put our 17' electric in
the water she was very ass heavy. �The water came up over 3" past the boot
top. �She looked like she was doing 50 sitting at the dock. �So we
redistributed the battery weight and took her back to the river. �As my
partner backed the boat into the water I noticed that she was sitting even
lower in the transom than the first time we launched.

Any body want to guess what the problem was? �It was not the drain plug as
it is forward under the front cockpit floorboard.

We forgot to remove the rear stabilizer strap on the trailer. �The boat was
actually floating the trailer!!! �We pulled her out and removed the strap
amid much laughter around the boat ramp. �This was a very nice late summer
Saturday with lots of people around.

Do I get into the club?

Do you know a blonde with a Bayliner? Â*:-)

That's the usual culprit in these "forgot to unhook it from the
trailer" scenarios- interesting to hear of one that absolutely
happened.- Hide quoted text -

After seeing what goes is filmed on the tv show "Americas most set up
(funniest) videos" I trust there might have been a little planning
here too...
