The real tragedy here is that the guy telling the story could have helped and didn't. The reason? He said he was scared of being sued.
Until some things change about our legal system, more and more people will choose "not to get involved". He had plenty of time to grab his camera out of his car and snap 5 or 6 photos though :rolleyes:
Sorry, but vette or not, I'm there trying to help this guy save his car (and his life) and I'd worry about the lawyers later. :boxing

Hate to see that happen to any vehicle. Too bad the stroyteller was too afraid of being sued to offer assistance. :bs He should have helped.
Anyway, what was the old Beatles song - "Yellow Submarine".

Nay, the real tragedy is that someone used their vette for trailing watercraft, and even worse, used it to unload/load them in the water with it! At least ask if you could borrow someone's truck for launching and loading once you got there. Stupidity is expensive.

Same reason most won't think of asking to borrow a truck. "Sir, my truck did not have that rip in the seat or that scratch on the tailgate before you borrowed it, I need your info to give to my attorney.
It dang sure shouldn't be like this, but you all know it is.... It sucks when you can't breath easy anymore when you try to help anybody.
