"A bad day on the water is still better than a good day at work." We have all heard this. But what if you work on the water and have a bad day. I saw this web page that may amaze and amuse.

Backlashes, rude boaters, and difficult boatramps don't seem quite as bad, right?
Amazing series of photos!

Uffda!!!!!
Boss I have some good news and some bad news; First the good news, I got the tow boat washed! The bad news is we're haveing a little trouble with the superstructure, and some water in the bilges.
Does anyone know if any of the crew rode it out?

Never would have believed it if I didn't see it. So I suppose they hooked back up to the barge and went on with the rest of their day? Incredible!
