That's crazy. Good thing it was 35 Celsius and not 35 Fahrenheit. That would have been more than a drag if he was duck hunting.Blake Williamson wrote:Well for starts ole boy had maybe 3in of free board on the bak and he was having motor trouble and it died or something and and took a wave right over the transom and to the bottom she went. No floatation or nothing.....

Did he just get it or did he already know it was a sketchy ride?
Hopefully he gets that sorted out before duck season. If his back end was sitting that low, and since it didn't float at all when it went under, there has to be another issue with the boat. I'd guess it's been sunk before and the flotation is waterlogged and deteriorated.Blake Williamson wrote:
Yeah if it would have been one of them good 20 or less degree days that would have sucked! And probably wouldn't have ended well at all.
I didn't know the guy he was from Vernon Al but from way he talked what little I was around him I think he has had it a while.
