It\u2019s funny what we can forget to do or check sometimes.\u00a0 There was one couple who forgot to put the drain plugs back into their boat when they re-launched it at a new mooring site \u2013 oops \u2013 next morning boat submerged.\u00a0 I had a friend who got ready for duck shooting and travelled for hours out to the hunting lake \u2013 oops \u2013 forgot the gun.<\/p>\n
