Transom door wouldn't close about 200 miles off the coast of Washington and they were taking in water so the Coast Guard towed them in close enough for a private company tow. Just got to Port Angeles WA.

Wow, hard to believe there wasn't a way to disable it and manually shut it.  Looks like the lines tied to it up to the cleats would've been able to keep it shut tighter if they were able to close it.  That is a pretty bad design!  Luckily they were able to get into port.

... and that is what you get when you choose features over safety.  What a mess.

I suppose there is a winch for closing the transom ... wonder why they didn't use it.

@Aqua_Aura I thought you went MIA 

Nope still lurking. This winter has been a tornado of change so I have been busy. Opening Day for our club is this weekend so I should have boat pics 🙂

It’s a Chulux kind of morning!

@YYZRC I'm just jealous because it's the middle of the week and you are on your boat!

YYZRC

No money no problems!!

A Florida Man fights a bunch of other Florida Men at a huge boat party, and gets his face all busted up ...

Nothing like UFC Rumble in the Water. LOL.

First second of that video I thought, there would be absolutely no reason I'd want to be right there!  100's of drunk guys in the water.  Yes, there will be a fight, yes the water is a bit warmer (LOL), no eye candy, um, well I can definitely go on.  Looks like maybe the platform was for a band?

LaRea

The video called it a DJ platform.  Sober people would call it P|ss Alley!  Looks like Jobbie Nooner for A Florida Man.

I topped her off today in the backyard, she was just over half tanks. 2 runs to the station, $304.50 total. 63 gallons.

Lots of work, but you saved over $100

It wasn’t too bad, probably about two hours of my time.

Convinced 5 and me to jump in. 50 degree water but we had my boat ready to climb out and warm up with the swim step shower. 🥶

It is our opening day and commodores Ball this weekend so we are all liquored up and fed 😂
