Especialy for the two who were climbing up the bow while the engine was still running in gear if it had slipped back into the water and they got run over.

John,
You forgot "minor gel coat repairs needed".

Earlier this summer I was doing an IR survey of a boat in a large marina in SC. I was talking to the yard guy who was helping us, and I made a comment that the boat we were looking at had been sideswiped by a small tug and barge in the ICW. He motioned for me to look behind me, and I saw a basin where they had several boats tied to the circular bulkhead around the circumference, The basin was connected to the ICW by a rather narrow channel.

He told me that a couple of years ago the yard guys had noticed a shallow area next to the bulkhead so they took their small yard workboat/tug and tied it to the bulkhead in front of the shallow area, with the engine in gear idling so the propwash could scour the bottom and redistribute it. At lunchtime the guys all went into the shop. Somehow the boat got loose and for about 20 minutes they estimate, the boat just motored around the basin, bumping into client's boats, playing bumper cars.

Can you say insurance claim?

Was thinking the exact same thing.

i really didnt catch that...but suppose it ran through a swimming area then into a marina and hit the gas dock.......as long as we are imagining.

It would seem to me that a line from the bow might have helped the towing but perhaps it was hopeless.

Ok, here is question for all of you computer experts, why is that all of sudden I can not see the vidio.?

All I can see is a little icon in the upper left hand corner. Tried clicking on it but nothing.

Never had a problem up until now.

Number one fix that works 85% of the time:

Shut down the computer, wait 30 seconds, and re-start. Just a re-boot will sometimes work, but doesn't clean things up as well as a complete shut down and re-start...

Gave it a try. Did not work but I will keep trying. Thanks for the tip. I wonder if its my Kapersky blocking it?

Tony,

Kaspersky would give you some kind of notice, so doubtful it's that. Check your Internet Options, (Tools, Internet Options, Advanced), Security should look like this:



If that doesn't work, try upgrading your Internet Explorer to Version 8.0.XXXX http://www.microsoft.com/windows/internet-explorer/default.aspx

The upgrade will probably automatically fix anything that's blocking the video.

But before all of that, can you play videos on the Youtube.com sight?
