Well.... let’s just say that the guy that went first pretty much shat his pants cause he thought that the levee was only a foot high, 3 feet wide with some grass on it. He did not discover the true dimensions of the "obstacle" until he was about 20 feet away at WOT... ;)

I think Rob and I are 3 for 3 with oh shats and close calls in our last couple of outings.

The pics don't do it justice. That was taken after we pulled it up from the river. The boat was completely submerged with the exception of the engine block, and part of the front deck.

I think there was 3 wraps on the winch spool when I started winching.
