Weymouth ramp OH-OH

Truck takes watery plunge in Weymouth


Hope this is not someone you know.

Apparently the docks are gone from Weymouth ramp, and its difficult to get a boat out. Check out the video to the right of the web page.

What a way to end the season! Just wait a couple hours and they'll be able to walk right down to the truck at low tide. I know that launch at Back River and use frequently.

I know someone who did that twice in one year at Sandwich ramp. One time his truck was front end first into the drink. God knows how he did that.

That is such a shame. That is a great ramp, but maybe in the off season it's not taken care of as nicely as in the Summer. Man, what a way to end the season.

Who's Murphy? Kept saying Murphy's truck. Nice how the sign on the door was blocked from view. You are right: no trailer????

I'd lean towards stupidity before insurance fraud. There's a reason the retirees go and sit by ramps on a Saturday morning - nothing like free comedy.
