But I did slam into the POINT street bridge / that was good for some descent hull damage .

Beside s the lower unit @ Cutty ...........I,ve lost one hitting under water pilings at a super load tide with way to much weight in the boat.
Then I ran over a rope that had a log on the end . the rope wrapped around the lower unit & the log smashed the lower unit .

last year it just not looking .....slammed another rock .......another lower unti .

props don,t even count anymore .

the boat currently sits @ the marina ....snapped the steering & the helm .

the tin boat ...can,t remember them all .But I do remember dave F-18 & I running up on a ice flow because the bass were underneath it ..................also the New years Night JR & I went holdover fishing ............coming back home .heard a f #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&g bang .WTF was that ............ the boat came off the trailer completlely ........blocking traffic .... we got the guys in the car behind us to help put it back on .............. went home ,

Now waaay back in the day I was trying to pulll out at the Ocean Grove ramp ...... with a 4cyk opel .............. revved the hell out of it to try & get up the ramp ... went flying up the ramp & this guy has his boat just to the left ,,,no where were he should be tieing down .................... swirved to miss him .I hit the the curb .. flipped the boat over .........it cut this back door off right at the hinges of his car .I picked it up & put it in his back seat .............The boat . we had to take what was still in it out & the motor ..off .. with onlookers we got it back on the trailer & hooked all the wiring back up / motor turned over .........besides his door the only think broken was a rod the anchor fell on ><>

&&&&&&&&&& Then there was this time we were flying down 195 we get on Washington Bridge . I smell something .look in the side mirrror / the trailor tire is on fire /look at the other mirror .that tire is also on fire ..........But that good until another day & time ><>


then there a ton of winter /ice/ cold / incedents

We were driving and every bump was squeak, creak, bang, boom, for 30 miles and we head up the Neck, hit a bump, there was a loud VVOOOM and then silence. Tin boat is lying sideways in the street.

Of course I remember the other time drifting eels

"Mike we're gonna hit the rock"
"Nahhh, we won't hit it"
"We're gonna hit the rock"
"No, we won't hit it"
"We're gonna hit the rock"
"Nahh, just fish"
"Mike, we hit the rock"

"Mother..."

Yep. 1963 split roof coupe. Would have paid for ALL the lower units and a couple new boats!
