I have seen that before in person pretty funny. There is a big amish community 30 miles south of where I live.

I love that it has the outboard. There are so many loopholes in that whole Amish religion/lifestyle.

I saw it done with a Whaler on Mackinaw Island, without the cart, but a BIG bridle between the two horses with a hitch ball in the middle... walked right up the ramp with boat in tow like nothing...

Wayne, out here we occasionally run into packs of wild horses out in the desert (yes, wild horses still exist in America).
Pack up 600 of them and put them in my motor and I'm good:sifone:

I was going to guess Indiana. I drive to Indianapolis a lot and have seen a lot of interesting things. Last trip was a huge Amish kid on a tiny pony. I thought it was a dog at first. :D

Routes 6 & 20 use to get pretty spooky at night b4 they made them put lights on the buggies. Nothing quite like pop'n over a hill on a 2 lane at 55mph, grossing 80,000 lbs to find a buggy in your lane do'n 5-10 mph to get the adrenalin pumping.

Yep 6 is the route I take to work. Gotta love the poop piles on the side of the road. Pretty weird as 30 miles south is a far cry from where I live!!!

Theres quite a few amish around here. I took my boat to an amish canvass shop to have a new cockpit cover made. When I picked it up a 17ish year old kid asked how fast it went. I rattled off something stupid like 150mph. The kid looks at me with a dead straight face and says "that sounds pretty fast" He was real confused when I told him there were 700 horses in the back.

Where did anything about backing doubles come from this?:huh:

Have seen guys do it though. Not very far or pretty, but enough to get out of a jam

Saw this a lot boating in Lake Shelbyville, Il for years. Kind of funny, they do all the canvas and interior work for most of the marinas and they do go marina to marina by gas powered pontoon boat!!! They did awesome work and very reasonable. Their lighted buggies were ran by batteries and some had the small attatchments to the buggy wheels like the old ones generating lights on bicycles. Still kind of hypocritical!!!!!
