Hello,

My father bought a brand-new Chris Craft inboard motor boat around 1947 or
so, and took it up to the lake, and put it in the water for a test drive.
The
water level in the lake happened to be low at that time, and the first
thing
he did was gut the boat on a submerged log, and it sank straight to the
bottom. My understanding is that it's still down there.

LOL, sorry to laugh at this unfortunate incident, but I can't help it. Why
is this funny? Newbie sinking his boat on a first outing?

Newbie gets back home,..wife says "where's the boat, dear" ..."at the
bottom of the lake, Honey, I sunk it" lol.
