Archived from groups: rec>boats (more info?)

Let my daughter use the expedition to go to the Angel game Sunday. So I
decided to pull the boat out onto the drive way a bit further, so I could
work on it. Backed the beast (motorhome) into the driveway, wife hooked up
the trailer. Said OK. Pulled out and then where the drive way sort of dips
down into the street, right past that, I heard scrape, noise and bang.
Looked in the side mirror and my wife was standing there looking between the
motorhome and the trailer. A look of confusion. She had forgotten to pull
up the tongue crank wheel. ( no big deal). Just broke the snot out of it.
Anyway, put a crate under it, cleaned the boat, ordered a new tongue crank.
Hit us as funny and stupid and now I get the GPS cause she feels bad about
it!!!
