Howdy fellas,
All I can say is; talk about "
Hard to port !!!"
For all of you 'salty' dogs out there.......
what would cause the skipper of the boat to do this!?! Left his keys on the coffee table back at the BOC? Tryin' to shift some ballast? Chasin' dolphins? Just saw the movie 'Fast & Furious 3 - Tokyo Drift'?....what? ;-)
Tread.

Or, the skipper is from south Louisiana and just said "Hey y'all. Watch this!"

What about:
