I HATE! when that happens.

I witnessed a similar thing many years ago when we saw guy launching his 18' aluminum boat.He had backed his boat down the ramp,and i guess forgot to put his explorer in park.He was out on the dock trying to push the boat off the trailer,when he starts yelling for help,and we see the boat,trailer and his Ford Explorer go into the drink.
It wasn't funny,(actually, it was in a sick way).The Explorer went to the bottom in about 12' of water,and all the stuff that was in the cab like paper and his styrofoam coffee cup came floating up to the surface.
A buddy of ours who runs the bait shop nearby, told us that the guy asked to use phone.He called home, and was on the phone with his wife saying,
"Calm down,it's only a truck the insurance will cover it"

Terry,
It would probably be the one time that I would cry instead of screaming.God,the thought of anything bad happening to the Seacraft would be horrible.It scares me even think a tiny bit about it.
The truck I could replace,but the Tsunami?? To find one done would be out of my price range,and doing another resto would be out of the question.
Hell,I have seperation anxiety as it is, being 400 miles away from her.Every so often I fire up the computer just to look at my pictures of it.
When I make the first trip up to the camp in the spring,I'm like a little kid,the first thing I do is to walk around the boat and check out every inch of her.
Sounds crazy,but I still feel as excited about it as I did when I first bought it several years ago.
Eight more weeks!

"All this,just for a boat ride": to coin a phrase! BTW, Great Phrase! Says it all.
