That's one of Fed's Fed peeing.gif tricks

He mastered that trick around 28 years ago & I had to accept his Golden Brick on his behalf cause he wouldn't front up to the Presentation Night laugh.gif laugh.gif

Same thing happened at the Kurnell ramp 3 weeks back. It is a shallow and long ramp. At the end, is a drop off, and the car driver, dropped off. laugh.gif Some gooses around. I was waiting to retrieve my boat a few weeks back and after the 5th go at backing down the ramp, the driver just kept going and the trailer went off the side of the ramp and sideways across the boulders. The dope dragged it back up and told me to retrieve my boat, so he could see where he was going wrong. JG would have done his block, but I was just taking it all in and wondering at the stupidity of some of the human race.

nothing wrong just needs to undo the shackle on the winch, then he can use the boat

I think he wanted to wash his vehicle and trailer in salt water due to water restrictions.... laugh.gif laugh.gif laugh.gif

DOH!!!

got to hate that!

Oh well might as well un hook the car and go fishing and deal with it once you get back!

Guys here we are laughing at what had happened. But I know that we feel for this person for loosing a car.

He can always go swimming and unhitch the trailer and wash that off. The car is what will take some time to get right.

Instant right off when a car is submerged in saltwater....

Hes probably happy that he is gettin a new one..

Saw a similar thing happen down terrigal one arvo....SOme forgetful person parked and came for a wander along the rocks to see the bonito we were catching and forgot to put their handbrake on...Car rolled from a good 70m from top carpark between other parked cars missed the boat being loaded onto a trailer at the ramp and finally splashed down off the side of the ramp....The owner was watching this unfold with us and agreed how dumb the person was---took the goose a few seconds to realise it was her car!!!!! laugh.gif A mate dragged it out of the water with his 4by...Not much fishing happened for us for a few minutes as we were all laughing too much!

I reckon the guy should just unhook the boat and go for a fish-his car is stuffed so might as well go relax and have a bit of fun before having to deal with it!
