IN MY MOTHER-IN-LAWS BACK YARD!!!
i had just finished restoring the hull on a 78 trihull and rebuilt the outboard. i wanted to take it for a test run but i didnt want to go at it alone. (been there done that) so i drove about 20 miles to pick up my fatherinlaw so he could go with me. when i got to his house i was on the phone with my wife and she was complaining about me taking the boat out instead of working on the honey-do list she had for me. as i pulled into his driveway i noticed that nobody was home. so...im a little ill because hes not there (said he would be), ill because i want to take the boat out, and my wifes jawjacking about me being gone.
instead of doing the smart thing (yeah right) and backing up to turn around, i decided that since i was on the phone and only had one hand to drive and didnt feel like trying to back the boat while listening to her complain, that i would just drive around the back yard...HA. simple oversight...it had been raining for like 2months.
anyway, 6 hours later...lots of mud on the boat...pissed off wife...pissed of motherinlaw...fatherinlaw laughing histarically...didnt take the boat out...we finally got it pulled out with a tractor.
i was so sick/mad that i left the boat there for like 6 weeks...if someone would have asked i probably would have given it away. my fatherinlaw got so sick of looking at it covered in mud...that he cleaned it up...lol. i finally finished the restore and sold the boat. still got the truck.
