The Great Boat Fiasco 2008

Scott invited us out on his boat again today, although I don't know why because something seems to always go wrong. For example, on trip #1, Julie busted her head open, and we had to come in early because it wouldn't close. Then, we couldn't get the boat back in the garage, so we had to leave it out for a friend of Scott's to put it away for him. While unhitching it, Scott forgot to lock the wheel, and the whole trailer came crashing down.
Here are a couple of picture to commemorate that day.

On the second trip, we stopped at the store on the lake, and the boat wouldn't start back up. We had to get a tow to bring us back in. It was really hard to get the boat back up on the trailer with no power, and then we had to drive all the way out to Lake Louisville where they proceeded to start the boat with no problem, and tell us that there was nothing wrong with it.
Today we had been out on the lake for about 45 minutes when it died. We got it running 3-4 times, but it kept dying, so we finally decided to idle in, and call it a day. I didn't take pictures because we weren't out there long enough.
