Some Australian made my day today. Really funny if you ignor the potential consequences and danger. He pumped 500 some odd dollars of fuel into a rod holder. If I could figure out how to attach the Yahoo story I would have included it

Australian boat owner pumps $580 of gas into rod holder instead of fuel tank

Sydney man poured a staggering 231 litres of petrol into the wrong hole before finally realising his mistake after it all came flooding out.

A google search says it's not the first time.

He's not the first, nor will he be the last. When I was working and had some time to kill, I headed to the nearest boat ramp and watched the best comedy show available!

This happened in my neck of the woods a few years ago. Even worse situation when it happens on the water.

How do think they’ll remove 231 liters of fuel from the boats side and/or bilge? Kaboom

I’ve seen this happen at Speedy Stop in Port O’Connor twice.

My favorite is dad yelling at mom for not backing up the boat correctly. Pretty sure the family boat budget took a hit over that one.

I've done stupid in a boat but not to that level.

that's the bestest way to ensure the bite is on fire!

And it's not even a Bayliner!

And even after it's out... The fumes are going to be even scarier.

Take it out in a field (have to know a rancher), open all the hatches and pull the 0lug and come back a month later and see if it's still there. Then proceed to clean up.

Really, the title of the post is insanely accurate. We've probably seen it all.

The most cringe worthy was a guy with a young infant on a jetski without a life jacket on. When people shouted at him his excuse was he was in a no wake zone and wasn't leaving it. You can't make this stuff up. Some people are just DUMB!

I always thought all the stories about boat ramp antics were kinda over exaggerated...

until literally my first morning ever launching my skiff down in pine island...the husband / wife combo launching in front of us managed to go from zero to full throttle as soon as the boat floated off the trailer with the wife managing to destroy the fish cleaning station right there

i looked at my wife and said "we are staying as far away from them as possible"

2 years later I just stay as far away as i can from everyone now

So leaving Flamingo this past Sunday afternoon, right as I get out of the parking lot to head home.... I get behind a big Yamaha jet boat with ropes and crap flying everywhere. The trailer had flat / extremely underinflated tires on both sides and was being towed by a rental pickup truck (rear window sticker said so).

The first thing I thought was there is no way this guy is making it home without drama.

Then it occurred to me... what in the hell are you doing in Flamingo with a jet boat and innertubes? This guy drove an hour each way into ENP to go swimming in the most shark infested, croc & gator infested place I can think of.

Once upon a time, a guy had his wife on the back of a wave runner when he decided to goose it. ......The wife fell off the back and received an instant episiotomy

They probably shouldn't breed either
