Do you PULL YOUR BOAT THROUGH A DRIVE THROUGH AT A FAST FOOD PLACE?

[Brent Shimanek]

I do it all the time. I have a list of boat friendly drive thrus. There are some around that are too tight to get a trailer through.

+1. Drive throughs without an outside curb/restriction are the best

[1Holeshot]

I never will. I was with a boater once that did and somehow hooked the rear of his trailer to the car behind him .
Another guy in a bass club I was in came to the ramp with a mangled fender on his trailer and a long scratch in his boats gelcoat where he caught the yellow post on the drive through. I wonder if that McDonald's sausage and egg were worth it? I bet Ronald the clown was laughing at him.

I agree. Not worth the risk at most drive throughs in my area.

no

why would anyone take this risk because the azz is so big they can't go inside ???

You spelled azz incorrectly.

I don't do drive-thru without a boat, so why with one. If I'm eating the crap at a drive-thru I need to walk anyway.

[Dstacks7]

Some I can fit it in, others I cant. I can put a trailer in some pretty sketchy places and get it out unharmed. But I also have zero shame in parking at the back and walking in.

I have if there's room but usually just breakfast because the drive thru will be open early but the dining room doesn't open early.

Pretty simple to park the boat and walk in. NO way im pulling my boat through a drive through.

[cwilt]

Not just no but Hail NO!!

Same here!

One time I made the mistake of trying to go thru a drive through that had too tight of bend in it and I couldn't make it as my trailer fender was going to hook a post by the ordering kiosk. Luckily, no one had pulled in behind me, so I was able to back out of there and exit.

I've pulled through a super tight drive thru Ice cream joint many times

The girls at the Exxon in Ashdown make the best damn egg, cheese, and bacon biscuit sandwiches in Sevier County. Easier than the drive thru at McDs. Although their drive thru is fine in a pinch.

Ditto for me, I do it all the time but you have to know which ones are too tight for the boat to turn. I have a McD's I pull through all the time and the only problem is a couple of times I have made the left turn too tight and got some trailer rim rash.

[Redog]

I tried one time early one morning but couldn’t make the turn after ordering. I was able to back out and drive around and line up with the window and get my sandwich. I wouldn’t try it again just because of the risk and the pain if you have to back up.

[El_Guapo]

There’s a couple I will, and they’re really old buildings, open enough to pull an 18 wheeler through comfortably.

[rednecktech]

I've done it many times, not just the boat but my 16ft trailer as well. All local though, so I know what I'm getting into. If I was in an unfamiliar area, I'd be hesitant unless I could clearly see the orientation of the drive through. Some places are like our local DQ, you can't make the turn in a 4 door full size truck alone without pulling up, back up, pull up.

Nothing more sexy to the first shift ladies at Hardee’s than a man pulling his rig through the drive through for his sausage and egg.

[rboren]

Local Sonic has special drive thru for boat trailer whatever. And no I have never

[JR19]

I never leave my boat unattended in public. I once saw some kids in a parking lot at a buffet style restaurant that jump up in a boat and start playing. At first I thought it was the boat owner kids until after they started the engine and some adult came over and shut it off and got the hell out of there with the kids. The boat owner was crazy for leaving the key in the ignition and the kill switch lanyard attached. I know one thing for sure them Mercury 250s sound bad ass on dry land. Anyways what’s to stop a thief, vandalism or stupid kids from crawling around on your boat while you inside the restaurant. The ONLY way I would leave my boat to go inside is if there’s 2 people and 1 of us has eye contact on the boat the entire time. Even with a boat cover I would still want to keep it in sight.

If it will fit im going thru the drive thru

[Bob G.]

I’ve never taken my boat through the drive thru. I don’t take my truck through the drive thru fast food places. I get money at a local ATM and have to fold my mirrors in.
