This one time on doe day on a WMA you would check-in at the check in station. This check-in station happened to be at top of the boat ramp where we launched, and hunters were lineup single file to check in before heading off into the woods.

There was this one guy about 6'2 275 at the end of the line waiting to check in, another hunter arrives in hurry with boat in tow to launch his boat, as he drives by this hunter his pole that had is trailer light attached hung this mans overalls and drug him all the way down the boat ramp before anyone could stop him.

Talk about mad S.O.B.

2 funny stories I have as well about almost fricking up boats but they dont involve a launch:

16th birthday, dad lets me take his brand new boat out with my friends to fish. fishing boca grande pass in florida and have a huge tarpon on that pulls out within inches of huge rocks and my stupid greedy arse says i dont give a frick we aint cuttin the line, well the tide changed and if you have ever fished there it starts moving through like a motherfricker. i had it about half throttle in reverse and it still threw us into a piling that put about a 9 inch crack at the top of the boat. dad wasn't exactly thrilled when i brought his boat back

grand isle a few weeks ago my buddy forgot to check for the plug when he launched the boat and by the time i got to the camp about 2 hours later the boat was about an inch from sinking. only thing that kept it from sinking was he had the power pole down. best thing is his boat is named "clueless" so his new nickname is captain clueless
