UGH!
That’s crazy! Was there a few days ago and didn’t see it. Have launched there literally thousands of times and at lower levels than now, never seen it before. Wonder how it got there? It’s definitely been put there recently.

If you haven’t seen it then hasn’t been there. I knew we hadn’t seen it before even when it was pulled down so low you could see the creek channel feeding the spillway. It is solid I beam steel. If it was put there by COE without marking it I don’t want to hear another word from them about safety.Quote:

I’d hate to hit it
they need to remove it or at least pull one of those no wake buoys up there beside it. somebody is gonna get hurt.
It's a few inches under water now, if you look close enough you can see the current break over the top of it. We talked to a guy putting in this morning that hit and a guy when taking it out said he hit and had a nice dent in the side of his Tracker from it. The bad thing is when you launch the current wants to carry you over that way. It wasn't there earlier in the week and obviously it was placed there, doubt an old I beam floated from the old iron bridge on Coleman road down to engineer's point. Guess I will try contacting the Sardis COE in the morning to make sure their aware of it. Just glad you posted this warning maniac, if not it could have done a job on a my prop or glass hull today.
:popcorn:ThumbsUpI won't be launching there any time soon. The COE is taking a risk if something isn't done about it. jmoQuote:

Wow. That was obviously placed by someone of authority without marking. How careless and unconcerned can ya get?

They have to attach another length of beam onto that one to the height of the other beams. Then they can install the rest of the floating dock. The other beam laid in the parking lot for several weeks until people complained that it was taking up several parking slots, especially the handicap slot Last year they had an orange ball attached to it to mark it until it got knocked off.
