Hey Pete, (and the rest ya wackos). I gotta relate. At least no cows were killed during this event, but a long time ago, back Illinois Fox Chain..DAMN HOUSEBOAT! I had a Switzer XS, Glenn a GC CV 23 jet.
"It was late October, last ride before ice hits, pickle the boats, and gets the sleds out. Glenn, me and Gary go down river a beautiful Indian Summer day. Low sun, smoky haze from all the leaf burning house's shoreline. Down to the dam, coming back. River was damn near boatless. So me front left, Gary in the back and Glenn nails it to go after some ducks. Never did get any as duck way FASTER! But real soon I see him sawing away at wheel, doing switches dash, and realize the MOTOR UP AND DIED! Ya can't steer a jet no power worth a damn!
So here comes a houseboat slow chugging coming at us..(well, us him). Looks like a head on and I was ready to bail out right side now. Finally slowed enough and the little skeg caught and slams his starboard front, our SB side. WHAM!
So still floating, he tows us to shore (just happened to be a bar..damn a LOT of bars the "Fox Chain!) there with a launch. Everybody OK, call the cops, and back the lake house to bring the trailer out. So we are BSing and dude said he was in the galley making a sandwich and never saw us coming! But the funny part? His wife was IN THE HEAD, and had just grabbed TP when hit. We go out the the boat, Sandwich fixings all over and She was flung off and out the can, and still had end the TP and IT WAS ALL OVER! Just to damn funny. They both rode MC's too, and ended great friends. Always funny when said.."remember when we "met"?
Glenns boat was toast, bent, motor sideways and off the mounts, just not gonna be fixed. Never saw water again..(Thats my old Bagger left side)..
Top that ya wackos! Couple pix..(and the two others, Glenn and Gary in the boat have passed to that big pond in the sky..sorely missed. (cherish yer friends...some day won't be there)
