No more boat dropping comments from you!! Glad everything worked out tho, bumpers can be replaced and trailers fixed.

….as a safety reminder to my fellow FSers.
So, picked up a 6x12 a few weeks back and in the somewhat hasty, distracted moment (had my wife with me) during hook up, I mistakenly put the wrong sleeve in my hitch. I thought for sure I grabbed the 2 5/16 but nope, 2 incher. Anyway, I pulled the trailer on it and locked and chained it down and hit the road. 75 fucking miles and hour down the loaded freeway and I went over a bridge and that mother fucker jumped off and started bouncing around all over the damn place! HOLY SHIT! Thank god the chains did their job and held on to it. It jammed up my bumper something fierce but I was able to pull it over and fix my own idiocy as I cussed and berated myself loudly. If it had been a single axle or, those chains would have let loose on that freeway…….whew!!!!! I’d be in a heap of shit right now
So, check your shit. It’s the stuff you just assume you won’t screw up out of years of experience that will clobber you over your melon!!!
