 Grande huevos award...
Txkingfisher and his wife are certified badasses IMO. Going in the drink first thing in the morning and being dried out and back on the water by around lunch time. Hats off!!!
TxKF, you're a bad MF'er for being able to convince that tiny wife of yours to get back in that thing and try it again. Mine would have told me to get bent pretty quickly. Again, you guys made an awesome showing. Glad you didn't lose your rig and especially glad you two were OK.

 Re: Grande huevos award...
Haha thanks. There wasn't any convincing her. When we got to the ramp I sent her straight to the truck to warm up but the first thing she did was bring the truck to the ramp to get the boat out. After I got the motor back up and running (she was warming up in the truck) we went into town to get her some new clothes at Target. After she got into some dry clothes I asked her if she wanted to go home or go riding. She didn't hesitate or think about it at all. She wanted to ride!
She's a total badass and knows no fear.

 Re: Grande huevos award...
He has to add another sticker beneath it that reads "Or small chicks." That's what you get for picking on us fat folks.

 Re: Grande huevos award...
Hers are so big they clank together and throw sparks when she walks Chris you've got a keeper there. Nothing better than a wife who totally supports her husband and will go to the ends to be with him. Mine would have told me to go get f@#ked in a hurry if I would ha e dunked her. She's a trooper

 Re: Grande huevos award...
If you can haul your boat in the back if the truck effectively, it's too small to be on the water with ocean going ships!

 Re: Grande huevos award...
Hopefully you didn't have your wife in there. .. get a little more stable platform, for her sake at least. She's to good to keep testing like this.

 Re: Grande huevos award...
FRC's are very sinkable. The company I work for lost one a few years back along with a couple of guys. We also sank one during shipyard trials last year pormpting a recall of that model of FRC. Regardless, my little mudboat is VERY sinkable.... I can't dispute that fact!

Pretty much. Not much more than a square stern pirogue.
