Maybe we should have small silhouettes painted on the side of the montgomerys showing the boats we've towed in..like the fighter pilots did in WWII when they shot down an enemy plane. Never brought in anything like a 40 foot boat, but I have towed 4 powerboats in off the lake. One of which was towed in under sail (it was amazing how my motor conked out just when there was a good breeze blowing) and blessings abounded that day, for they had to be towed right past the local sailing club!
