I couldn't hardly believe my eyes when I got to the dock to put my boat on it's trailer. There was a brand new Fountain, 38ft W/A with three 275 hp Mercs. Huge boat for my lake, anyways the wind was blowing hard pushing his boat into the finger pier. It was then I noticed this tiny woman on the dock pushing aganist the side of the boat in an effort to keep it off the dock. Tiny woman against 20,000lbs of boat, with wind pushing against the side. Guess who won. Scratch the black gel coat is the outcome. Made me sick to say the least. Then I notice he has no fenders out. Man I don't get the men who put their wives in harms way. Many men just wish their wives would go out on the boat with them. I don't blame women for not wanting to go because of this type of behavior. Then to get fused at for not keeping the boat off the dock. WOW, is all I can say. Then she goes up gets the truck, backs the trailer down the ramp and all he can say is "can't you get the trailer straighter". Man it was hurting my feelings, here is a woman that attempts to help, does a good job but it's not good enough. He'll wonder later why she doesn't want to go back out on the boat, and then complain that she doesn't. WOW, WOW, WOW!
