That was funny , my boat floats my trailer lmao , forgot to unhook the stern tie down straps , and right in front of 2 buds , omg did I get busted on , it was great 🤪
And I bet they still bring it up!
My new to me big boat uses a transom saver which I never needed before with my other boat. So the first day I get the boat wet, all goes well, I pull the boat out of the launch afterwards and start buttoning it up, taking off my downriggers, stowing all my gear... I put the straps on and the transom saver, then walk around and notice the boat is not all the way to the bow stop. I can't crank it more, so I need to float it again. I take the straps off and float the boat, then crank the winch. Looks like it's all the way to the bow stop so I pull it up the ramp and hear "SNAP!!!" No idea why, I go back to see my transom saver laying in pieces on the launch. I never took it off before trying to readjust the boat on the trailer, so when I winched it up it broke. I have also just about sank a boat at the launch by forgetting the plug- that isn't even noteworthy.
