Ahhhh, muddy boat ramp was no challenge for the SS!

I decided to put my boat back in the water today but when I got to the ramp there was about 2-5" of mud all over the ramp. No problem, I figure I'll just back down and then use the same tracks coming back up. So much for plan A. As soon as I started to pull back up, the rear kicked sideways and I was out of my tracks. Good thing I just washed the car and did a full wax on it. Mud was flying everywhere! I think there's still some on the dash(window was open). I was able to nurse it back up until I hit solid ground again. Just had to hose down the lower half when I got home. Came right off thanks to the fresh wax. I need to go back up to the ramp and take some pictures of the battle ground. Let's see, waxed the 2000, scrubbed the boat down before putting it back in, put the dock back together, took the 70 out for a spin and fill it up with gas for tomorrow at CNR, mowed the back yard and played 12 holes of golf! Good thing we have a fresh keg on tap, cause I can't move at this point. Dam, this nice weather's gonna kill me! :mrgreen:

I got a couple of pictures today from the boat. The ramp had dried out a lot. You can see where my main tracks were more to the right, but the car worked it's way to the left until I was actually off the paved surface. I watched a guy today in a jacked up Wrangler launch his waverunner and he struggled to get up in 4WD and it was a lot drier! He laughed when he got done and I told him I left those tracks with my SS.
