A mooning incident gone awry left me with a scar on my hip from one of my newly sharpened propellers one year. That was stupid at its finest......

One that comes to mind for me was the time I took my new In-Laws out thru Cape May NJ inlet during a very rough day. Got 1/4 way thru the inlet and was getting slammed by swells big enough to bury the boat. Get into a trough a we couldn't see anything but a wall of water. Look at my in-laws and thought I might be divorced the next day! Worst part was, the swells rolling in were too big for me to turn the boat around so we had to ride it all the way out and gradually turn back in. I also had my new wife's 4 yr. old niece in the boat too. That was not a fun ride home!!

stupidest thing I've ever done in my boat? the ex-wife!

I took my 30 velocity through a s turn tidal creek that I use to bomb through with my jet boat all the time, but wound up high and dry on the marsh. Also wound up on front page of local paper a week later. That creek is now a no wake zone. I didn't start that movement but unfortunately , my antics put the last nail in it. I grew up skiing and horsing around there. I'm sorry for the people that will never be able to, partly because of me.

My wife would have the habit of going into the cuddy if the air was a little too chilly to ride in the cockpit as I would run the boat at speed... So a couple of years back we take the boat on vacation to Florida in February. We are now in Daytona and its a bit chilly.. Find the inlet and I decide that I want to take the boat out into the ocean. Why not. The wife, girlfriend at the time, slowly goes forward and closes the cuddy door. Figure she knows me well enough and is heading below to avoid the chilly air.. Well, we hit the chop in the inlet and the chop on the Atlantic. Bounce around for a short little trip then come back into the calm of the Intercoastal. At this point I open up the cuddy door to check on the wife. It looks like a bomb went off in there. Even have the toilet seat on the floor of the cabin.. At this point I see the legs of my wife as she is sitting on the couch on my side.. Without a word being said, I slowly close the cuddy door..... Turns out she went in to use the toilet.. Got a good washing of her privates prior to being bounced out of the head, toilet seat following.... If it wasn't for having ChrisK along as a witness, she probably would have committed homicide.
But she still married me. |

Once getting Nicki and her poor suitor off of my cat I promptly hit a submerged log shearing the drive almost completely off the midsection. Needless to say I have been skank free boating with no problems for almost two years.

1996 My brother bought a new boat 23 ft with a 454 had all the options silent choice included anyways - it was very windy day - he back the boat down the ramp with me it to start it up and for him to go park the truck. - the waves pushed the boat off the trailer while I was trying to start it. the engine would not start again brand new boat keep in mind, so the boat starts to head for the very rocky side of the banks. My brother jumps in the water along with both us yelling at eachother, he swims pretty darn far to grab his boat just barely saving it from the rocky bank as I am trying to figure out why no start. I am back at the engine looking at everything as quickly as I can trying to figure out why NO start.
The problem was - I forgot to check to see if the lanyard was hooked - nope MY BAD as it was not even in sight. Boy did we look very stupid that day. My brother was pissed at me. I found the lanyard in the glovebox and hooked it, the engine started right up. I have never made that mistake again EVER. I have 2 more stories of what inthe hell was I thinking. |
