I know that there are threads out for stupid boating incidents but I didn't want to take the time to find them.
A buddy of mine calls yesterday to ask if I heard about what happened to our friend's boat? He proceeded to tell me that they were going to bring the boat to town for some speaker repair. The dad drove the truck and trailer to the landing and instructed his son to drive the boat from their house to the landing. No problems. Load boat, no problems. Pull boat out of water, no problems. Pull boat to town, problem... After a 15 minute drive into town they notice smoke bellowing out of the engine compartment. When the stopped and got out to investigate they found that they never turned the motor off!
Seriously.
