Well, for once in his life, WB got in a hurry. He made his final wipe down of the barge and actually help me and Feelay and the jr feelays gather the stuff up and get the rods in. Boy was I proud we got em in before it started raining. It would've been miserable ridin 2 hours and 18 minutes home with wet clothes. But, we had one small problem. Ya see this big ginormous boat of feelays has got all the bells and whistles. He's got the ocean goin 101 on the front, the 1197 on the console, the jacuzzi livewells, a big honkin motor on the back, a couch across the boat and trim tabs. Yup them trim tabs are great fer leveling the boat at plane speeds when the weight balance is off kilter a fuzz because of skinny folks on one side of the boat and mediocre sized folks like me and Feelay in the middle and on the other side. They make it ride like a dream. Unless you leave one side down during a hole shot situation. The side that is left down has a tendency to make the boat wanna lean in that direction and possibly take on a minor spray, which casually mist the person on that side of the boat. Well ifn ya couple that with the aforementioned fitty mph breeze and 1-2' rollers this breeze has caused, it will throw gallons upon gallons of water into the boat. After about the fourth wave hitting me in the face, lap and shoes and not seeing any relief in site, I make a dash to the front of the boat like a drenched cat.
Now with all this being said, I will not blame Capt Feelay for this mishap. The blame will be squarely placed on.....

Speck?

Yep.....Its bound to be Speck fault lol

I'm really surprised u ain't figured out that when I got on the boat I reversed the up/down labels. Feelay caught it right off but played along just for sport.

With the likes of you two on board, it's only due to my cat like reflexes and on the water skill and knowlege that no one was kilt or severely marked up.

I don't really reckon there woulda been a boat big enough to save us, if Speck were added to the mix!
