That's me. Left front blew and jerked the truck hard to the left. I tried to correct but the back end came around and it went into the center divider. Rolled 1 or 2 times. I don't remember, whole truck was full of sand. Somehow the trailer was 20 feet farther facing the opposite direction and the boat was another 40 ft away facing back the way we came. Got it on the trailer after about 4 hours and we are finally almost to the house. Boat will be in the water tomorrow.

Everyone be careful out there.

Garrett

Wow! So glad you're alright!! See you out there!

Your angel was riding shotgun.

That looks bad. Glad you came through on the other side my man. Be careful out there.

Thank you for all the kind words. The boat has been in the water since last night and was still floating when I got up this morning so that's a good thing. Going to mess with a fuel pressure issue and then just run her. We don't have shit for service out there, so my phone is always on airplane mode. We are in town now getting some parts and other random stuff. Will be here for an hour or so. Shouod be heading up river a little later.

Yeah, would have been nice to have been able to just pull it on the trailer, wasn't that easy. Took 2 CHP officers, 2 tow truck drivers, Johnny, and myself. It was quite the chore but we got it on without any damage to the bottom, just a little scratching on the bow that I'm sure I can wet sand off.

Crazy that that's all the damage done. You are blessed.

. It's cool we were having drinks in the river. Garret's little bruised up but hanging tough. He does tie his boat a little different then most.

Headed back to town on another parts run. New freeze plug and spark plugs. Should be good to go as soon a we get back. Surprised the olds is still going. Had the headers glowing red on the run back down.

Met some more members and saw a few that I already met. The group keeps getting better. Jim, Nick, and whoever else I met that I can't remember. Dennis and Chausa, thanks for the offered help and enjoyed having some beers.

We should be headed back up river around noon we think.
