Thread: Crappie USA....Day 2

Thanks for the comments about your boat. I have a crappie master and it has been in some rough conditions and handled well. Never had water come in when running in rough water conditions. I bet it was because it was tied to dock and probably would not be able to rock with the waves. Wind may have been coming from behind and came over the back.
Sorry to hear about your problem. I am sure it will clean up and be ok.

We finished in 6th Place for the day in Amateur Division and 6th place for Big Fish with a 2.55 lber...Now for Day 2 ....Looks like I am sunk (literally) before I get started. I woke up at 4:00 this morning to find this :





The back of the boat is completely under water. I think the foot of the motor is hitting bottom and keeping it stable for now.



Needless to say, I have been on the phone with my insurance company and SeaTow should be here by 9:00 this morning and recover it for me. I'll get some better pics when it gets daylight.

painful to hear your story and see your pictures. glad to see you got it out. hope it will be ok. sorry this happened to you. jim g

Man, Tim those first few pics were horrible, glad you got it out & in recovery. This is my first year missin the crappieusa at Crescent but after seein this & the way the weather was,

I have to say this was the year to miss it.

Man when you called me at 530 and told what happened I couldn't believe it. Glad it's going better than you expected so far and that your insurance company is helped you quickly. Was good to see and talk with you again even though in less than desirable circumstances. Really glad it wasn't while you were in the boat away from shore.
