He should have gone for the double whammy and also forgotten to install the drain plug in the boat. Seems he half-assed it :laugh:

I did the drain plug thing once only after launching I went across the street to get a coffee. When I came back there was 6" of water in the boat and it was going down. You've never seen anyone move so fast to get the trailer back in the water and winch the boat on and yank it out. Let it drain and continued on with going fishing. All ok.   :eek:
