Default Bye-Bye boat!

Well I got out today for the first time since tropical storm Erin hit, and when I saw the debris line I new it wasnt good. The line was about 10 feet higher than were my boat was, so it had been underwater completely for quite some time . I found one seat completly unbolted and knocked off and the "waterproof" compartment for the battery completely full as well as numerous holes and scratches. Well there goes my brand spankin new boat that i loved so dearly Guess Ill start saving up for a new one, and hope that Hurricane Dean DOES NOT HIT US!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ill get pics next time I make it out there.

Hope that the boat was the only thing that was damaged or hurt - it sucks but now you have an excuse to upgrade.

Stay safe (and dry)

No, its just a 10.4 ( i beleive) Basstender jon boat, nothing special but was my first boat and served me well. I will put the boat on a trailer and in my garage if Dean comes this way.
