Sounds like another drinking tale. Most good F*ck ups start w/ ...we were drunk or we had been drinking or something like that.
Good everybody made it out ok.

A buddy of mine put a big hole in his checkmate 20 ft ski boat. We need 2 get it bout mile down river 2 the ramp. Boat has no flotation an there is bout 3 -5 mph current an 5 - 20+ ft. The biggest boat we go 2 help is a 22 ft plate boat with a 90 horse. |

Easy way is to use float bags & compressed air. Anything buoyant will really work. Ideally you want to suspend the boat in the water column & move it to shallow water where you can hopefully pull it on shore & empty the water. On a larger boat you'd beach it so the sides are above the water line & empty the water. |

We pulled one out a few years ago just like J and Jacob did a few weeks ago. We tried bags and such like Coe said and finally gave up. We just tied off to our other boat with a 40 merc and sure enough that sumbitch jumped out on plane and we drug it back to the ramp. We just kinda slung it up on the bank when we got back to the ramp, then pulled it all the way on shore, drained it, and winched it on to the trailer. |

Unfortunately so. Maybe some predators will take out this group of the mentally challenged. |
