I posed that question at work, and everyone was in agreement. It would have been bushlight because Johnny Walker wouldn't have done that!  ;D

No mystery really ... I imagine he asked his wife to dock the boat.   Looks like she did a great job to me.

I'd really like to know how someone got that boat that far aground, maybe trying some Bond maneuvers crossing the bayou?  With three outboards, must have some money tied up in it.

    Fault my inexperience, but that looks like a seriously wicked hull design with a huge outboard attached to it.   Surprised someone has not created a blow up system to float craft like this off into deeper water.   Pretty certain there's a story behind every example......

    Yep, that hull looks like the last one in the brochure.   Considering the drive is up, I wonder if that is simply a low tide condition that occurred while docked.?   Have to wait for the moon to come around I guess.......
