Only in NW Pennsylvania

Went to look at a project boat today near Townville. the owner told me he was keeping the trailer, I about shat myself when I got there. To get it off the trailer they dug a trench with a backhoe and backed the boat in until it was off and the pulled the trailer. My guts are still sore from laughing most of the 25 mile trip home

    The things people do never ceases to amaze me. Gotta admit, never saw that done before.

    Greatness is not measured by what we have,
    but by what we give. 
    If I were to give our children but one thing, it would be the gift of euthusiam!

    how in the heck do they expect someone to get that thing loaded and hauled, a crane?

    talk about killing your resell value

    "A Homewood man led police on an hourlong car chase that ended with a crash injuring three officers.

    "The car was driving itself," Wright said. "The car has a GPS. It's a Lincoln Navigator. They drive themselves. I wasn't running nowhere."

    Couple of straps and that backhoe could have lifted that hull off the trailer and set it on some blocks. Maybe they were planning on burning it and covering it up

    1 floor jack and some blocking, I could have had it off in half an hour, very easy once youve done it a few times, Im looking for something 24 feet or so for a trailer boat or I might bid on that 21
