A True Blonde Story
A true story. If she had killed herself, she'd be a shoo-in for
the Darwin Award (might be a problem in the gene pool).
Last summer, down on Lake Isabella, located in the high desert an
hour east of Bakersfield, a blonde, new to boating, was having a
problem. No matter how hard she tried, she just couldn't get her brand
new 22-ft Bayliner to perform. It wouldn't get on a plane at all, and
it was very sluggish in almost every maneuver, no matter how much
power she applied. After about an hour of trying to make it go, she
putted over to a nearby marina. Maybe they could tell her what was
wrong.
A thorough topside check revealed everything was in perfect
working order. The engine ran fine, the outdrive went up and down,
and the prop was the correct size and pitch. So, one of the marina
guys jumped in the water to check underneath the boat.
He came up choking on water, he was laughing so hard. Under the
boat, still strapped securely in place, was the trailer.
