kickingfrog Posted October 28, 2012 Report Posted October 28, 2012 Well if you're a glass half full type at least the one was left to get them home.
irishfield Posted October 28, 2012 Report Posted October 28, 2012 Barrie police trailering accident again???
kickingfrog Posted October 28, 2012 Report Posted October 28, 2012 What is the broken part in the very top right of the first photo and then isolated in the second?
BillM Posted October 28, 2012 Report Posted October 28, 2012 That's probably the CG boat from Brit, lol.
SlowPoke Posted October 28, 2012 Report Posted October 28, 2012 What is the broken part in the very top right of the first photo and then isolated in the second? That's the transom mount bracket but I can't for the life of me imagine how it could have been damaged. I wonder if this boat fell while loading it into a storage rack? Perhaps it was hit by another vehicle?
Whitespinnerbait Posted October 28, 2012 Author Report Posted October 28, 2012 I'm going to find out how it happened tomorrow
Grimace Posted October 28, 2012 Report Posted October 28, 2012 But other than that the trip went well? :-)
NAW Posted October 29, 2012 Report Posted October 29, 2012 Look around inside the boat for a box full of busted parts. If he hit something in the water to cause that damage, he likely would not be able to find the bottom end. If it was a trailering incident, I would think he would have grabbed the rest of the bottom end to scavenge parts.
BillM Posted October 29, 2012 Report Posted October 29, 2012 If he hit something in the water, the odds are the other motor wouldn't be untouched (Or the bottom of the boat for that matter)
NBR Posted October 29, 2012 Report Posted October 29, 2012 I hit a rock with the bottom of the skeg while on plane. I snapped the lower off at about a 45 degree angle. We were at a boat in lodge and managed to get to the lodge on the TM. We got a tow back. Found a rebuilt lower in Ft. Francis and was back in the water in 2 days. If I remember correctly the repair was about $2500. The positive was that just before the rock jumped in front a wolf swam across the lake in front of us and we watched it climb out on to the bamk.

irishfield Posted October 30, 2012 Report Posted October 30, 2012 Does look like most dealers on our side of the border are looking for about 26 grand MSRP. Guess the Kbec police shop state side...
Whitespinnerbait Posted October 30, 2012 Author Report Posted October 30, 2012 Guess the Kbec police shop state side... Take another peak at the trailer.....Ontario Plates !!!
Dutch Posted October 30, 2012 Report Posted October 30, 2012 Should be covered by insurance, shouldn't it?
captpierre Posted October 31, 2012 Report Posted October 31, 2012 What would the motor be worth as is?
Harrison Posted October 31, 2012 Report Posted October 31, 2012 Looks like someone took a sharp turn or a corner too wide and brought the back end out of the channel into a stump judging by the damage. Must of been on a boaters card blitz.
Harrison Posted October 31, 2012 Report Posted October 31, 2012 He is lucky he didn't blow both of them... I think we are the lucky ones as taxpayers.
