nothing like dodging telephone poles, railroad ties, and
2x4's to start the summer off. I checked my props on Monday morning and only had one little nic. I did have to clean out my drive showers and speedo.

I saw some guys running balls out, I am thinking they might have some surprises next time they are cleaning their boat.

I just scuffed the port prop, but had a buddy trash a prop and maybe a shaft on a large cruiser, now that sucks..

I never seen so much crap in the lake. Ran labbed props all weekend (left stock ones at home) without any problems.

Boat stayed on the lift this weekend. Used the time for cleaning that never gets done during the year. Too much floating junk, should settle down in a couple of weeks. All that I heard about was jet pumps getting plugged.

No problems for me that I know of. Did a lot of crap-dodging, though. Ran hard later on Sunday from toll bridge to Horny Toad with no issues.

I lucked out. Didn't tear anything up but I did see a deer floating that looked like it swallowed a 55 gallon drum. Hope no one hit that. I'm at the 38mm Osage , sure was a mess
