Saw a couple pull their brand new Striper out at the Everett ramp this summer, forgot to tilt their brand new out board up. The husband gives the wife the "OK" to pull forward, all you could hear was the skeg and prop dragging across the parking lot. She took off like a bat out of hell with him chasing her down, she must have gone a couple hundred yards before he caught up to her or she noticed him. People were yelling and waving, she just waved back. Needless to say, the motor wasn't brand new anymore.
