Was at my river house this weekend. Saw this guy in this boat coming fairly fast into shore right in front of my place. I thought this boat was going to end up on my lawn. Anyway, he tried to beach it on my lawn but couldn't cause of the cement retaining wall. The boat slammed into the cement then hit my dock. It sank in about 4ft of water. A huge hole in the hull was the cause of this. The owner wasn't very happy. He had just bought it. Here is the link to the photos I took.

to add insult to injury, send him a repair bill for all the damage he did to the
lawn, driveway, and concrete wall, dock, house, mental anguish...lol...

the big hole in the hull was already there. He hit something out in the river or it was a patch job gone bad. He came into the beach with the nose way up in the air. I saw the hole underneith just before the boat sank.

I was thinking the same thing.......I would have said "thanks, but no thanks" and called another tow company.

So the boat was sinking already...I thought maybe it got that hole in hitting the wall..

I was gonna say maybe the guy should take up watching TV as a hobby, but it sounds like there's more to the story.... :chi:

That's exactly the reason why I don't clean my shotgun when I'm boating.

My wife and I are almost positive those are the same guys who where doing an early morning speed run last weekend in front of the Blue Water. The guys we saw did a few passes before getting the clue that they were being yelled at not cheered on. :jawdrop:
Still hate to see anyones boat go down. :frown:
