I wanted to take my dinghy out of the water today. It's usually on the back of the 480 DB on the platform but it's easier to do the maintenance on it in my shop and not on the back of the boat. So I had my son drive it over to the local public boat ramp and I met him there with my truck and the trailer. This is an 11 foot Zodiac Projet dinghy/RIB with an 83 HP jet drive.
I get to the ramp and there are like 8 boats there at 1:00 pm in the water and tied to the docks by the ramp. This is a dual ramp with docks lining each side. There are no trailers/trucks on the ramp.... I start to back down and my son pulls the boat up and some ASS CLOWN in an old crap 20 foot red boat (1970's vintage) with an evinrude outboard on the back the size of a VW (here in after referred to as "skanky boat") yells at my son to move out of the way so the "real boats" can use the ramp.... REAL boats. *REAL* boats. HUH? HOW RUDE! HE INSULTED MY DINGHY! Mr. Skank man and his skanky family and skanky boat insulted my dinghy. I got the boat on the trailer, pulled it out, strapped it down, and left... 5 minutes max. There were still no other trailers at the ramp but these people in the boats all looked like their best friend died or something... unbelievable.
I'm sure I'll get a warning to watch my language... oh well... off to throw the chicken on the grill.
