Refrigerator Boat

Rattlesnake Gal · 08-30-2004, 10:34 AM

My guys sure have a sense of humor!

I warned them if they tried it as a boat it would get posted on the PhotoPost. As expected, it was very tippy.

I wonder how many BTUs per mile it burns?
Is that blue line on the left the extension cord?

Since you have a new sail, try it out.

So the kids complain that it's too hot and you tell them "Cool off, go jump in the lake". Next thing you know it's new refrigerator time.

Next time I expect to see pics of this year's winner in the RI Improvised Boat Race. Will it be the Fast Fridge or the Colossal Cooler, stay tuned

RG,

I hope they put it back on the front lawn where it belongs once they were done! Right next to the couch and washing machine...

Thanks for the chuckle. I just hope my boys don't see it and get some ideas. Our fridge is new!

That's the COOLIST boat I've ever seen! SS

Hey....don't you need to be 16 to operate a fridge on the lake? Too funny.

That's what summer on the lake is all about.
And people say there is nothing to do.
Looks to me like good kids having good fun. I'm jealous. LOL

25-30 years ago it would've been me in that fridge.

So THAT'S what you meant when you told the boys to go "Chill Out"!

If you look at the size of the paddle, you can CLEARLY see that this is one of those overpowered "offshore" refrigerators!

I'm outraged over the blatant disregard for the safety of the residents of this community by having such a dangerous vessel on the lake!

If you look closely, you can also see that the captain of this "offshore" deathtrap has tampered with the "through the ice-maker" exhaust sytem in an effort to spit in the face of local ordinances relating to acceptable noise levels.

I'm also confident that the image has been digitally altered in order to hide the scuff marks of the numerous law-abiding, angelic sailboats that have been rammed by this vicious killer!

PS - Who would like to venture a guess from which neighboring "bay" state this culprit's license is issued?

I'm simply outraged!
