It may be paradise up there but there is ALOT of spots that can just ruin your day in a big hurry, and they just seem to come outa nowhere.
Hope all goes well with the repair.

I've seen 165 boats running out of Gananoque !!!

We used to cross the border and go to A Bay for a card.
165 pin balls in a cluster phuck scene , especially when it was windy.

And then we had to fill out customs forms !!!

The good old days !!!!!

The area is sure a special place on Mother Earth...just gorgeous.

One boat at a time nosing into a single sideways dock.... it would have made way too much sense to close of the town docks until everyone was checked in. Nothing like a 4 hour lunch to stretch the day .... :D

One year when we were in A Bay 3 of the guys were arrested by customs when they were checked.
Was a hoot.

Can you imagine the card showing awards banquet with 165 boats !!??
In those days they had 2 showing and one at a time revealed the next 3 cards. Took hours.

Was and still is the best of the events though.

The audience and spectator boats make it a great day.

That is the question! I'm sure he did not. My guess is the center was higher than the other than the props slammed each other. unless it was the bottom that torn the drive off the the props touched... it did knock very little in the steering, but the skegs are ok so the trim idea is maybe the best one...

The guy had many speed boats before, but no triples... I guess this is in an unfortunate but normal learning curve ...:coolcowboy:

he confirmed the drive indicator indicated full up to trim limit switch but kept trimming a little...

We fixed the boat this week, ready to get wet tomorrow...

he could have raised that one to get it out of the water and keep going.
