Sunk the boat thread.. V2.6

[Zaairman]

So, as some of you may remember I was involved in an accident a few weeks ago where I rear ended my buddy's boat. Well, this was his first weekend back on the water with it. It did great all day on Saturday and Sunday morning, til about 12 when we found out his bilge pump had failed while we were eating lunch...

Cracked his transom when he hit the bottom... Luckily he was only in 3 feet of water. We did save it and it's on the trailer now.

Both. He fixed it as a temporary repair to get him through this season til he could rebuild the entire transom this winter... :rolleyes:

Water coming out your dipstick is never a good thing. Has he pickled the motor yet?

Ah... Well I didn't think you were trying to talk shit... :confused: I'll tell you right now he didn't repair the transom correctly and he knew it also. He just wanted it to hold up a few times for the rest of the summer... It was holding up fine through all of the abuse until it hit the bottom...

Yes. See that crease on the top of my bumper? That's from his prop.

[dirty old man]

whats this doing in ***boat? Have we no limits, no pride? Do we want something like this in the same place we talk about Eliminators, DCB, Cigs and Skaters. I don't think so

[Zaairman]

Yes. Yes we do. :)

[OutCole'd]

Yes. Yes we do. :)
I agree, why not??

[Mandelon]

Maybe he got banned at Trailerboats.com..... :D

:D Haha... Have you no pride? Why would you assume that he would take the measly task of trailering a boat? He pays somebody to do that for him. :devil:
