    Reminds me of the prank threads of the past. Club tournaments and shotgun starts. A few rip rap rocks in the front storage compartment can slow them down a little too.

    Just for fun make up a short little wire with a ring terminal. Use a lighter/match to char the wire end. Drop it under the dash of your buddy's boat.

    That boat should be sitting farther down in the water ( like sinking), as far from the dock that it is.

    Few months ago I idled out from the dock for a few minutes to warm the motor and then made a WOT run 5-6 miles down the lake with no plug in. Bilge kicked on about the time my first cast hit the water. By the time I got it reeled in, the second bilge had kicked on (never seen that one in action). The high school kid that I captain and had instructed to remove the transom straps and screw in the plug before launch was already removing his shoes before I got the words out of my mouth. Water temp was low 70s and air temp high 60s- It was a chilly next couple of hours for him. At least the sun was out. He fished in his boxers for a couple hours until they dried out. Told him he was crazy. I'd have free balled it and put my dry clothes back on......young uns these days.

    Put another guy in the club's rods back into his rod locker, it was still dark out and he thought someone stole them. Didn't even occur to him to check in the locker.
