Attack of the killer tire
« on: November 26, 2011, 07:55:37 PM »
After fishing with luna sea i went to my marina to check how my shrink wrapp turned out when a boat coming back into the dock became disabled... a SUPER low tide brought the channel down to less than 2 feet of water and he ran over a rope that got wrapped around his prop... the rope was tide to a car tire which got wrapped all the way around the lower unit of the brand new yammi 115. John (owner of the marina) and i got into the sinking work boat from the 50's and disentangled the tire from the motor and then dragged the boat through the mud back to the slip.... WHAT A SIGHT haha will try to get a picture from johns phone and post tommorow.
