At least it was rotted .... better than being at the Town Docks (on completely the other side of the Lake), making a spectacle of yourself by running your battery down to where you get that dreadful sluggish cranking sound and you just know you have only one or two more attempts left .....when your teenage son pipes in and says "Dad, did you flip the Emergency Switch on the throttle back to "on" .... I turned it off when we left the boat to go shopping" ............ GGGRRRrrrrrr !!
That was the day I put my son up for adoption ........ he should be 33 by now, hope he is enjoying his new family !
