I used my 7 litre Pela vacuum extractor to empty the sump on my 3QM30 one fall 
and then kicked it over on the way up the companionway. Had to yank the sole 
and swab out the engine compartment. About three hours as I recall. Nice!

I left the oil cap off once.  Ran the boat hard for 6 hours before I noticed.  
Also had the mess.

I have no problem admitting to my mental limitations....if I were that 
smart, I wouldn't be sailing a 31 year old boat and I wouldn't be doing 
all of the maintenance/work myself.  Possibly explains why I am a big 
fan of the C&C list.

Here's another example of 'stupid'......changed the engine oil last Fall 
just before haul out....started the engine after the oil change but just 
long enough to hear the engine alarm go 'off'....launched this Spring 
and went for a half hour motor before docking.....noticed some oil in 
the bilge....now we get to the 'stupid'......forgot to put the oil cap 
back on the to of the engine last Fall after the oil change....some oil 
spurted out of the top of the engine and made a mess all the way to the 
bilge.

Had a big clean up.....I am a full member of the 'stupid club' and 
freely admit it!
