“First of all there was not a lot going through my mind at that point,” he recalled. “That was not smart. If we drop it that’s a little bit of a problem but the worst thing that could happen is the edges on that trophy are so sharp, had those things clipped one of my boys in the other boat that would have been an ugly parade.”
