Events from Sunday (no pics, sorry)

Mounted the swim platform Saturday. Went well and looks great. Problem is I now know the exact state of the wood in my transom. Motor flexes the transom so I knew I would have to deal with it before long. It will be a DIY as I've fiberglassed before. Drilled bottom mounting holes and the wood came out soft and wet. Anyway, all went well. Boat ran exceptional all day Sunday. Lightining ran us out early, so I put the boat on the trailer and went to give the winch one more turn. My crocs didn't stand a chance on that slimey boat launch. As I picked my butt up out of the water I noticed blood puring down my leg. Pegged one of the bolts holding the tounge jack on. Wrapped my shirt around my leg, hopped in the back of the Suburban and my wife began pulling us out. She made a left turn just out of the launch and the bow of the boat caught the open driver side barn door on the Suburban. Needless to say it won't come close to closing now. Already called the insurance co. Thank god for the $250 deductible.

Did I say the boat ran well? Oh well, its only money (and stitches). :(

Sorry I forgot the darn camera.
