Homer Simpson's boat. (Duh-ooh!!)

[Art Read]

I've had a picture like that on my 'fridge for years. 'Cept it's from the stern with the name clearly visible beneath the surface. "MOLLY BROWN". Get it?

[Peter Malcolm Jardine]

Well there's sea skiffs.... and undersea skiffs

[HS]

It's one of Team Dennis Conner's tenders for U77

[Hugh Paterson]

Ooops, I have a friend who owns one of em, cannot wait to show him a picture of what they look like when the ballast tanks dont blow, dont think much of the marina management though
Shug.

[Scott Rosen]

Hmmm. Looks like a noisy, ugly, unseaworthy fiberglass speed boat. It's exactly where it belongs.

[Gary Bergman]

What Scott said, the pumps are working just fine...

(That's why I use EIGHT docklines...)

[Phil Young]

Just in time I'd say.

Poor bugger. We tended to lose one or two every year in PNG when the rainy season started. A lot of plastic boats have holes in the transom very close to the waterline, whether for outboard motor controls, fish well pumps, cockpit scuppers whatever, lose a couple of inches of freeboard and down she goes.
