As you know good boat drivers don't grow on trees

I remember one day pulling everyone around with my bass boat. One of the bigger adults felt he had enough beer to prove his manhood and wanted me to pull him. A friend of mine had stopped over and told me to take his ski boat rather then try to pull the lug out with my 75hp.

There is quite a difference between jamming the 75 to the stop with the rope hooked low on the transom when they say hit it versus a 225hp ski boat with a tripod. I realized my mistake when Jim's ski's never moved and he came flying out of the water and airborn as if he had rocket assist in his butt. Somehow he didn't find it quite as amusing as the rest of us did:)

Would you like for me to come down there and pull you?
