    Rigging a 200 Merc to a 150lb aluminum jon boat

    Yeah, I know it's unsafe, but we can all appreciate how funny this is. They were just goofing off and it's good that they didn't test that near other boaters. You know that so many of us dreamed about doing something like this at some point. Go ahead, admit it. I would love to just park this at the boat ramp to see the reactions it gets. I have a condensed version on our Instagram here:

    I’ve seen some stuff that’s darn similar down in southern Louisiana with the coon asses. Seriously. One old boy ran his junk out of the swamp to where a bunch of us were testing in 660’. He was having a ball. Not a life jacket in site. Tiller on a 225 or so Merc. Smoked a few Allison’s and the rest of us, waved goodbye, and headed back from whence he came. We were all chuckling and wondering WTH had just happened!

    we had Lifelines and helmets. He had a ball cap. Lol
