Your car will not float when you cut the boat away from the trailer!

I'd be pissed if I was waiting to get my boat out.

[sparky216]

Didn't they put the vehicle in park...and the emergency brake on?

Doesn't quite make sense to me.

Yea, I was thinking the same thing......how could a roller pull a boat, trailer, and SUV into the lake? Seems there is more to this story perhaps.

hahahaha!!!! Yea, but I'm sure you'd understand.

This is funny and all, but man that has to suck for that family. It's going to take a while to recover emotionally from this one.

That won't do you any good when you jack up the rear tires

Still, one tire is on the ground and once the jack breaks there will be two tires on the ground. Seems like there would need to be a lot of force to take a truck in that deep......but I guess stranger things have happened....... and why not just push the boat forward and unlatch it? Why the cutting?

Clearly you don't live like a wally. Please don't try and understand their ways....they are ancient and mystical.

Even as the first reed boats were making their way up and down the Nile....there was a wally, rowing his boat into oncoming traffic. Getting his anchor line wrapped around his foot, etc.


They are never to be understood, only mocked and laughed at!

Well, the boat was safe.

Something similar to this happened at ramp on the east coast of Florida.

However it was a yellow Corvette attempting to recover a Sea Doo that had taken on water.

The ramp is frequented by sportman whom launch their fishing rigs and despise PWC riders, so inevitably one of these sportman watched the events unfold, photo documented them, and then later logged the location of the submerged Corvette on the GPS after positing upon the local forum.


(I searched for the thread but couldn't locate it.)

The photos clearly show the vehicle underwater near the end of the pier.

Found the link..

However not sure if the pics will load, work server shows the red x.

He knows because he lives in the world of wallys...at least he as a constant source of entertainment.

Couple of pictures of the sad day for the PWC rider attempting to recover with a Vette.

If only this weren't so true.
