    My son always pulls the boat to the end of the dock, if room, and around to the outside of the dock when possible. Sometimes my merc is a little cold blooded and takes a bit to start.

    My son and I have run into a few of the jackasses who are so important they have no tolerance or respect for other folks launching or on the lake. Fishing is supposed to be fun.
