Sometimes it's more fun to just watch the drama at the ramp!

Got behind two guys who found out, after they got their very old 25-30 foot walkaround's motors in the water, that the batteries were dead. Then they left the rig where it was and rigged a jumper cable from the truck's battery back to the boat's batteries.

Guess what happened???? They soon had dead truck and boat batteries, with the trailer in the water and truck stuck on the ramp.

The guy behind them offered to jump the truck battery with his boat battery on the condition that when they got the truck running they'd get out of the way.

It worked. All in all, about 1.5 hour delay.
