[QUOTE="redneckfisher, post: 174894, member: 1891"] Ok, so the last time i put the boat in the water this year (a few months ago) i went and had a problematic beginning with the motor not working so after an hour i got it working. then i had a good 6 hours of fishing then came back to the docks and i decided to leave my boat there (i locked everything up) then i couldn't pick it up till the next day. so when i finally went to get it and it was literary just holding on by the rope, everything was underwater, and if the lines weren't there it would have sank, the weird thing is the marina people didn't even notice it, but i finally bailed and dumped out all the water and noticed the cause. a patch (JB weld)( that i thought i fixed) came undone and let water come in. the damage was: the battery (water destroyed it), my tackle box (floated down river), my reel (in tackle box) and my 3 hp Gamefisher outboard (water got all in it). i was able to fix the motor but now it makes a loud squeaking noise now. The boat i'm gonna get welded to fix the problem for good. And now i need to get all new tackle (like lures don't already cost enough). ugh not a good end to the season. [/QUOTE]
