How the hell is he going to get it out of there?
 
I mean honestly, too heavy for people to pull out I would believe. Not sure another boat would have enough pulling power and I would assume looking around at the area there is no tide. Maybe a super long winch on another boat fully anchored?

Would love to know how it would eventually get out.
 
I read the thread here was the answer of how it got out.

Otherwise, an anchor and a come-along is all you need. Go drop the anchor and basically winch the boat to water... Move the anchor. Repeat. Won't be quick, but it will work.

The front was actually not that far from the channel.
 
Statistics in the making...
 
@Julian I do not define that as a "boat fail":)
 
I'm certain Yamaha has received at least one warranty claim because their boat did not operate well on land.
 
Sorry but he is one of those people that say just keep practicing and as son as he gets the boat in the water he can do just that.
