Post 2016 SETX Damage Reports
Besides any egos...what was injury report this year?

My throttle remote loosened up on me out there and wasn't letting me get full throttle at one point...easy fix on the water and back running in short order.

Lost a light bar bolt...vibrated loose and probably into the drink.

So far, that seemed to be my extent....besides the trim switch issue pre-departure from LA.

Think my front seal starting leaking, looks like some grease is thrown into inside of clutch cover! And for as the ride only got stuck twice and sunk once!!! Once taking two prodrives to get me out and then once an airboat! Oh yeah, got my pirate flags dirty!!!

Whacked something hard with my lower unit and took a good chunk out of it.

Carb came off twice. The bolts backed out of the intake adapter and might be stripped out now. So maybe a new intake.

Ohh and one hell of a hangover. TWICE!

Broke my kill switch. Thought it was way worse at first.

Exhaust bolt gone, cracked case cover.

Fixing to do some tweaking to the motor while in there this time. Nothing spetacular, just a good going through and parts replacement while im taking everything out of the block! ;) ;) ;)

I spilt a beer when the airboat pulled us through the marsh grass. I told my wife to face backward and she started to ask "why" until she figured it out on her own.

Was great fun!
