Youtube is restricted at work. Can't watch it.
Watch it at home, Liquid.
Curious about your thoughts.
What in the hell are they doing? There are so many dumb things happening in this video I don't know where to begin?
Let's sit in the break for instance. We're 15 ft from shore but let's keep 12 people on the boat including the dog. Let me repeatedly sit in the break and drink every wave.
I understand these boats can't handle chop but this is a classic example of not understanding your water and not understanding basic water safety. He was totally unprepared for this situation.

Yup
No life jackets either ....and it appears their bow ballast is full.
Stupidity on an unbelievable level.
I wonder how they finally got it out.
Btw, the guy in the drag boat does a fairly nice job getting his on the trailer. Just not sure why he is out there.
Here are his trailer loading abilities:

I was going to say I bet the f'ing ballast is full.
Everyone jumping out is insane too. If you notice guy at 6 minutes passenger doesn't move.
So many things...

I know this is off subject, but turtle habitat was mentioned
This is a turtle pen we built, Turtles lay eggs on shore and they are subject to predation from racoons etc.
We hoped they would enter pen to lay eggs which would be protected, they decided to lay legs outside pen
I actually baited snappers with meat, have some cool pics of them feeding, but for some reason they won't lay eggs inside

Holy crap!
I think your turtle pen is a little more advanced than mine.
What kind of turtles are those?

Least of worries, the area around that lake is loaded with eastern massasauga's, commonly known as Rattlesnake
We manage their habitat as they are now listed as a threatened species

Well the snappers certainly will regulate your poisonous snake population!

Maybe the pen looks too much like a trap? Can you just pick it up and put it over the nest?

I'll give you a shout for help
I have small cages welded up that I set over nests, normally the raccoons will eat all eggs overnight so you have to be lucky enough to see turtle nesting and cover asap

The turtles or the Massasaugas?
