I seem to recall a post from quite a while ago that showed a picture of a C5
that had backed too far into a lake while unloading some ski-doos.  I can't
seem to find those pictures (or that post) anywhere.  Does anyone have them?

Thanks in advance,
    Rick

Whoa those are better then the original post that only had one photo of it
halfway in the water. Kinda weird with all the trucks around that nobody
offered to pull it out.

Or maybe the guy was trying that "Rain-away" or whatever that stuff is for
your windows ?  Not sure if I should laugh or  feel sorry for the guy ! Gee
I can see the talk at the dinner table;
"Ummm honey, I sunk the Vette today, can I get a C6 to replace it ?"

How could you feel sorry for the guy?  First of all, towing watercraft
with a Corvette??  I guess if it's a leased car and you don't give a
crap about it.  Sorry if I'm offending anybody here, but I just don't
see it.  Second, the guy MUST be a knucklehead to back the car down the
ramp until the rear of the car started to float.  As far as anybody
offering to pull it out (so to speak), I think you have to go by the
golden rule of "no good deed goes unpunished".  I could see an idiot
like this guy obviously is suing somebody for damaging his car in the
act of getting it out of the water.  If you can sue Macdonalds for
burning yourself with their coffee, you can sue anybody.

Shut up, Dave.
