So something happened today which led me to think as boater’s what words don’t we want to hear?
I’ll start:
Today I decided to back the boat into the slip, while backing her in my lovely lady tells me something, it went like this...
Her-“stop the boat”
Me-“what”
Her louder- “STOP THE BOAT!”
Me-into neutral and down ladder I go
Her-“I dropped the dock line and now it’s gone”
Me-look at the taunt line on cleat
Her-“I don’t know what happened”
Me-“well the prop and shaft do”
Her-“is it bad”
Me-head back up and finish with one engine.
In the end she found a diver at the dock to dive and clear the line and do an inspection, $50 bucks cash later we got the all clear, thank goodness I was at idle and threw it in neutral fast.
