These are all funny as hell and all sound familiar. I have gotten a few with lil bass boats wanting to race. They ask how fast, when i say only best of 68, they wanna run!!

I say, sure 1 condition.... we race in 3-4's!! That usually does the trick! Lol

Bad a guy pulling a Baja islander ahead of me at the ramp one day. Walks up to my boat and asked how big? Pointed to the 33 outlaw sticker he was staring at. He said wow that boats to big to run here. No it's not we run them here all the time. Him- yes it is. Me- no it's not. Him- I'm telling you it is. Me- ya your right sorry

1. How fast is it?
2. Oh my god, do you have lifejackets? To which I reply: absolutely. It will make it much easier to find the bodies if I crash.
3. Then they say they DID want a ride, but maybe not so much now.lol
4. Then I tell them my next boat will be much faster and they walk away shaking their heads.

Of late most questions are about buying the boat. Most often after the poker run on Lake Cumberland. One kid in a brand new Duramax crew cab ask the price, I tell him, he says I can by a brand new good boat for that price. Another guy same question tell him and he says something about finding one for 5000 in FLA he comes back to town a few months later with a salt crused Bayliner cabin cruser. Lots of others asking if I would take 10K for it give them a price and they argue with me as to why the price should be 10K.
A few ask why I dont take the boat out I tell them the waves arent big enough for me on these inland lakes.

So...you are a 2 pump chump? I got ya beat, I pull up centered between two rows of pumps, rear pump on each side filling up both sponson tanks and one of the front pumps filling up the Dmax...Officially making me a 3 pump chump. About 6 credit card swipes and 20min I am good to go and people are pissy!
