I used to keep my deck boat in a slip that looked right out on a pair of double ramps. The couple next to us had a nice pontoon boat in their slip.
Sometimes when the crappie were biting at the slip dock or the weather was changing, we would sit right there and just watch the drama and comedy as boats launched or were recovered.
Couples acting like Jerry Springer auditions, rain storm hi-jinks, drunks and the water patrol and death defying stupid boat tricks.
It was better than the comedy channel.
I can totally see that being a source of near-endless amusement.
