I thought this was kind of interesting. On our way to Brostock at Lake Powell, a buddy of mine had a giant bottle of Absolut to bring along. He threw it into the side pocket in the bow of my boat. Now I know there was nothing wrong with the carpet in my boat prior to this because I had just cleaned it. However, when we got to Powell and I removed the bottle, there were several small dots of melted carpet underneath where the bottle was. As best as I can figure, the clear bottle acted sort of like a magnifying glass and anytime we stopped with the sun shining on it, it would focus the heat enough to melt the carpet!! Strange but true wakeboarding stories!
