Dumb stuff people say about boats

Trim it up as we neared the sandbar, from an outboard/I/o owner.
We still tell each other all the time to trim it up.

Then of course there's the "if it's propped right it'll do XXmph", some grossly inflated number.

Specialty boats are a lot like specialty cars, where nobody really knows much about them but still casts general knowledge and wisdom around, resulting in moronic comments. I can't tell you how many times I've had to explain what a ski boat is and why it's different from a typical boat.

I thought it might be fun to get a thread going on the dumbest stuff you've heard people say regarding your inboard.

For us, the best one was when my wife was loading the boat onto the trailer at the ramp and a salty old know-it-all insisted she trim up the outdrive before I pulled the boat out of the water- multiple times. He couldn't believe there was no outdrive. Never mind the giant hump in the center of the boat.

Another classic is that of course, if I say I have a boat (never mind explaining two boats) to somebody who's not into ski boats they ALWAYS say "break out another thousand", "hole in the water you throw money into", etc. And, if they had PREVIOUSLY owned a boat (and it's always some stupid, generic I/O or outboard) they love trumpeting that "only two good days of boat ownership- day I bought it and the day I sold it". Ugh. I always try to say something like "a true inboard is pretty simple to work on and I've done all the work myself over the past 11 years of boat ownership". Sigh. I've had this conversation so many times.

What dumb boat comments have you weathered over the years?
