Started easing into it and noticed that he was going faster so I went a little faster, and faster, and faster then decided to lay down the hammer! About 15-20 seconds into it I turned around and they were pretty far back.
After that we went and hung out with some friends and bbq'ed, got back to the dock at 5:30 pm.
Mr. V, you should have came out with us!! The boat actually didn't break a drive! YET...

I may just take the time to prep the trailer for some paint. I told the wifey I was painting it white, she didn't like that idea and thinks I should paint it teal so it doesn't look dirty so fast and any rust spots don't get amplified.
I guess she's got a point but white looks pretty good!

Go with teal bro. I agree with the Mrs. Does she know you refer to her as "wifey."
I think we're gonna hold out for this weekend and hope for it to clear.
I guess ya did the rain dance for the wrong weekend.

Got back to the dock yesterday and both of us turned to each other and said; "wow, nothing broke today, what a good way to end the season!"
