Bubba’s in the Bow
You were right dear, the outboard didn’t have any gas in it after all!
Well Ollie, you certainly stuck the landing this time!
Lower the hoist. Let’s try this again. I don’t think we should be lifting it by the traveller.
“I’m creating a work of art called, ‘Whale Breaching’. It’s in its early stages.”
“Sir, I going to need you to blow into this breathalyzer.”
Your left !
No, your left !
Remember, we went over this! The rabbit comes out of the hole, jumps around the tree…
This thing’s not all that heavy.
The new wind powered submarine is not performing up to expectations
All the full beers shifted to the bow.
SEE !!??? I TOLD YOU IT WAS A “BOY”!!
Dive, Dive…. this is now a submarine.
I said bowline damn it!! Not bow line….
Who forgot to raise the anchor?
Don’t pull on her nose. She’ll straighten out when she’s finished getting a drink.
Good enough. Tie’er up and let’s get a beer.
Global warming tipping point scale
I thought you said this was a symmetrical boat
“Let me just dip my nose in to see how cold the water is!”
Not what the racing coach meant by “keep the bow down.”
I told you bow down wouldn’t be fast.
“Uh. Bill., Say…could you come back over here to the stern for a minute? We really need ya buddy.”
Move that fender forward a tad please
I guess we did come in a little too hot!
I told you the bowman was gaining weight!
Ok next time we all lift at the same time…
I’m not going into that water until I test it first!
No, the drain hole is at the back!
“Good, keep the pointy end down”
Why haul ‘er out when we can work on her here?
Maybe we should move the anchor back closer to the mast?
Read the instruction manual? Oh, no! Not you! You don’t need no stinking instruction manual!!!!!
If we make it fit we’ll save money on this slip.
After millions spent raising it from the ocean depths, the salvage experts found it wasn’t the Titanic after all.
Nothing to see hear ,just scrubbing the bottom !
Insert Tab A into Slot B
There! See? You scammers didn’t paint beneath the boat stands!
Ernst is reconsidering the marketing plan for his dipping birds scale-up project.
Huh, I knew that strap was for something.
When I said I wanted us to sail bow down, I didn’t mean BOW DOWN!
You should have ordered the scow bow.
Not the usual side tie, nor the end tie, introducing the new bow tie; perfect for use at the marina that charges by the waterline foot.
Up a bit more… a bit more… a bit more… Aw shucks too much!!!
It’s not quite lined up with the torpedo loading hatch.
