Reply With QuoteI have never seen a thread with so much Drama....Guys from Texas coming to dive.... :sqeyes: Snow storms.....Rain.....How did all this turn into such a MESS???????Im just curious......
I'm not sure, and I know that lots of other people are asking the same question. But the moral to the story is... If you dump a good sum of money into a boat and aren't comfortable with the thought of leaving it on the bottom of a lake should the worst case scenario present itself, you should have adequate insurance on your boat to either A. salvage it, or B. pay any environmental fines accrued due to the sinking and replace what ya built.
The deal definitely sucks for the guy who lost his boat, but whats next? Donations to help the guy that just rebuilt his motor and spun a bearing on his first time out? This sport/hobby cost money, and to pursue it to the level that a lot of the folks around here do, it costs LOTS of money. With every activity there are risks, and if you aren't prepared to deal with the possible worst case scenarios, you shouldn't be participating. With all that said, I hope they find the boat and it is able to be repaired before summer so that the owner and his family can enjoy it.
