re: Are boat launches some of the most comical places on earth?

When I was a teenager I worked for a boat launch that used an electric hoist to take the boats off trailers and put them in the water.

At least 2-3 times a day on the weekends when things were real busy the idiots would fail to put the plug in the boat and after we launched the boat we'd move it along the dock out of the way so others could be launched while the owner parked vehicle in the lot.

Of course they'd come back in about 10 minutes and see their boat filling up with water and go into panic mode.

Pissed us off because it held up the line from getting their boats in the water when we had to pick their boat back up so it could drain.
