Runaway Boat Takes Fisherman for a Ride
Occurred on March 13, 2019 / Caringbah, New South Wales, Australia
Info from Licensor: "After a huge day at work, Simmo rushed to pick up his beloved Trailcraft fishing boat from the marine mechanic before it closed. Exhausted he arrived home and was checking everything out. Having seen the mechanic used the trailer hand brake, he dismissed his usual routine of chain and chocks. The instant he released the chain the boat took off. Now, there was no way on earth he was going to lose his boat. So he held on for dear life, managing to steer it to safety. He came off worse for wear after kissing the bitumen, but his beloved boat respected his effort and is ready for the next fishing adventure."
