Is it dual purpose cause you can have it pull your boat out of the water without somebody in the seat?

I like that too but it's gotta have a dual purpose. Can't use a stick to clear the snow. Wait wait I got it, the stick can be used as a pry bar.....

Your not laughing cause its funny your laughing cause its true, I was feeding cows, and my 3 year old niece was driving (may not have been a good idea???) and we ran into the only power pole in a 2 acre feed lot, luckily it was muddy cause my truck may have pushed the pole over other wise.
