| Re: Well, I wasn't going to tell anyone......
I forgot to put the bolt in a removable tongue on my boat trailer due to lots going on as I was hooking up to leave. Pulled away and went about a quarter mile before, much to my horror, there was loud bang and the boat nose was right up against the rear windshield. A 5,500 pound 20 foot boat getting up close and personal is a little unnerving. Fortunately, no damage other than a scuffed frame tongue. I now go through my checklist by handling every aspect of the tongue, safety chains, hitch, lights, etc. That stuff happens to all of us when a lot is going on.
Have a good day-
