    That reminds me of a trip I made to Lacassine several years ago. Got my line hung up in the prop so I lifted the motor, no need to push the pin to stay in place b/c it sticks pretty good on its on, well needless to say it didn't stick this time and I went overboard! It was cold that morning too! I ALWAYS keep a change of clothes in my truck now!

    What's the difference between a sploosh and a splash?

    A splash is a planned event and a sploosh is the result of goofiness.
