Real Time Stupid Boat Trick

Hey - just saw a boat in Yaquina bay on the Channel 8 news cam that was floating bow up (I mean ONLY the bow) tied to the dock. It was right in front of the news cam! :grin:
Anbody here got a boat down at Embarkadero? Better take a bucket and some sponges! :shocked: [img]graemlins/stupid.gif[/img]

I am wondering what is holding that boat up! Perhaps the mooring ropes? Here is the link to the cam

For those of you who might have missed it on the cam here is what was seen....

I think it's just the air bubble up under the deck. Must have a good seal at the deck/hull joint! :grin:

Who says PFDs aren't effective if they're all stowed up in the bow of the boat? :grin:

oops - I guess the seal isn't all that good, it looks like it's still sinking, going once, going twice, gone? :shocked: [img]graemlins/stupid.gif[/img]
Joe- you put the plug in? Nope, I thought you put the plug in. Nope.... [img]graemlins/icon_argue.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/stupid.gif[/img]
