Sunk 38 Baja at Lake Mead.
 

At least he saved the cooler! :drink:

Wonder what happened?

WOW! That hurts Where was the owner when this was taking place? So how does one get a 1/2 sunkin boat unsunk?

HAHA, it's a Baja!

sorry, couldn't help myself.:party-smiley-004:

pics like that scare me. :party-smiley-004:

Thunderstorm on Sunday July 3rd. Winds picked up and had a 3-4ft wind chop. I was told by the guy that took the owner back in. That he was trying to pull another boat off the beach he got sideways against the chop and on the beach and it was all over. 2000ish Baja 38 with twin 502's. Just pull it out and run some diesel through the engines. Be as good as new!

The problem is that sand will get into the motors with the water when they're sitting this close to the beach in rough water. A friend of mine just went through this when his boat got swamped on the beach in a wind storm, the sand was in everything.

There was a house boat that got flipped on the beach at Powell as well. :eek Freak holiday weather

yep(sorta lol), my scarab went down at my dock once. Had it up and running the following weekend. Flipped a couple race boats and had them racing the next day :cool:

Fixx

try to get the hatch open,put the suction hose in the bilge from a gas powered pump,put the cockpit cover on,start the pump and wait,,you best have at leaste a 6 pack on hand then she will be floating in a hour or two..:drink:

3-4' chop will sink a 38' Baja....? ill pass on that!

I call bullcrap on that. Been in 3-4 foot storm surges. If the boat is running you would really have to do something stupid to roll it.

Is that even the 38?

I second that.......

Man, very sad too see... Poor boat, but they'll get it back running again... Just gonna take alot of time/effort/work...
It happened to my family years ago on Lake Mojave, same thing, T-storm came up fast/quick, and we were stranded, so its hard to see this....

Also, any of you guys that have been on Lake Mead know, the water and weather conditions can change for the worse very quickly and its like a mimi ocean, at times....

When I saw the topic all I could think of was "later" and his "I sunk the boat" thread on the old Hotboat site. Now that was a thread that went everywhere.

Old Chinese Proverb Say:
"Put enough Water In Any Boat and It will Sink"

Hate to see this happen to anyone, glad no one was hurt, guess this is what insurance is for.

First photo looks like the engine hatch is missing.

Guess the chinese never heard of a boston whaler.

Old Almost Wise man stand corrected!
"In almost any Boat"
