Today we had far fewer fishermen but the one brave soul who launched to fish stuck his nose out front (you have to look) and then ran back to Marshall and trolled for halibut (you don't have to stay). He ended up with a couple of keepers.
Okay, I try not to do these, but damn.... You know, sometimes you see a boat with some custom addition that doesn't look that well done but the owner is really happy and proud of it, so you let it slide. Let them have their fun. Boating is supposed to be fun, right? But every once in a while you see one that is potentially harmful or fatal. The following pictures show a boat in the terminal phase of what one of our mechanics (I can't recall if it was Jeff or Nate) called "Small Boat Syndrome". Usually this applied to boaters that wanted (or needed) a larger vessel for all of their crap. This boat has been "extended" to facilitate carrying more people. The flotation in the seats (and the seats themselves) have been removed for more room for bodies. And I'm not sure if this is a 15 horse main engine with a 20 horse kicker, or maybe it's, not twins, but stepbrothers? You make the call:

Crammer’s or
Clammers???
There may have been clams involved but they were surely cramming the people in.
Scary , maybe you should repost a video of the sinking crab boat that you had a year ago
Frankenstein is building boats now?;)
Does anyone know if DFW banned the clam pumps ? Saw several being used Saturday.
Nice welding job,but what a waste of wire.
On closer inspection, maybe I'm looking at caulk????
Still legal
That would be pop rivets and household caulk.
Hey guys, i know a ton of people who have been to lawsons landing in their lifetimes. I know willy needs a new pier. Why not set up a go fund me . it might just take off.
Good idea! Set it up!
As Rush Limbaugh always says, "For those of you in Rio Linda" because that looks like where it came from. I would be hard pressed to step into that flotation device. As an ex Navy guy, it does not look sea worthy, or bay for that matter.
brussell@novoconstruction.com just an idea not an offer. But I would contribute.
The wing on the front,what? I guess that's to keep the bow down with the step brothers in the back.lmao. 99 ways to die
I guess finding a used boat on Craigslist was too difficult
Just a little more caulk and sheet metal and you'll have yourself a dandy submarine!
Yes why stop there - a pilot house would really set that boat apart from the fleet.
It appears he does have room for a kicker!
They way he was loading the boat he was trying to make it a one-way submarine like the Hunley. I told him on Monday that I wouldn't launch him anymore unless he only took 5 people and they had to have life jackets. 10 seemed excessive.
