Boat #2 no pics of the damage yet, but it decided to loose the oil pump and lock up 4mi into a 8mi upstream run.

Now I'm hoping this guy has enough juice to get me in without having to get a tow.

Sucks. Guess if it was easy everybody would be doing it.

Lock up? As in the motor locked up???
I remember owning boats.......from big block jet drives to 6 banger inboards.
I don't miss a damn one of em.
The only one I miss was my first. 19' Checkmate shallow V, Olds 455 with a Berkley C pump, two seats and a raised back deck. I bought it six months after my 21st birthday. That boat just made bikini bottoms fall off. Dambdest thing I ever saw.I remember owning boats.......from big block jet drives to 6 banger inboards.

@Stevetheboatguy your first pic reminded me of our recent trip to Montana.
Came around a curve on I94 near Fargo and notice white marks all over the road. That's when I saw the 16' or so Bayliner sitting on the shoulder...truck and trailer long gone!
