:D

Thanks for the boating-karma points, Mr. Blue Aftershock Guy... Can't ever have too many of those!

We pushed this guy at least 15 feet on DRY sand to get this boat off. Took 12 people pushing to get this sombitch off. Okay, granted, the water was crazy, crazy low this weekend, but seriously, how did you not see the dry sand in front of you?! Friggin newbies... :cool: LOL

LOL, no actually the driver and one of his passengers said, "the last time this happened"... But hey, if they weren't absolutely hammered they would've seen the sandbar... :rolleyes:

Wow. I've brushed over the top of a sandbar (1 1/2' deep) when floating downriver, but never put the boat up and out of the water 100% like that!:drnkfr

That could ruin your weekend/week/month if there were a few more rocks on that bar.:rolleyes:

It's not that hard......

Sometimes they just can't see what everyone else can see...

Here is what happens when you go from a pontoon to a little quick runabout...
