We got no idea how his boat got here but unless the water level comes up it's not going to be moving
any time soon.

Found it out at lake mead today as your leaving callville bay it's way up on the beach off to your right side.

What a shame to leave such a nice nordic out there to be pillaged.

I woulda tied a ski rope to it, pulled it off the beach, and declaired it as a recovered vessle which was abandoned.

did it look like it had been there for a long time?

someone tried that already a tow strap was hooked to the front.

it looked as though if you had a key it would have fired right up it was real clean.

I was leaning more towards something not right with everyone's first thought of wanting salvage rights on the boat.   ???

Odd that in this shot the bow is so close to the water

and so far away in the others. I've got news for ya.... I'd be out there with a shovel digging a trench to the boat to float it again.

Yes it does happen alot here on the river, people forget about the water going down at night. But chances are that boat was probably stolen, ditched and were going back later to strip it or bring it in at night ???

But then again who knows

kind of the same thing happened to my father and me at apache lake about 8yrs ago (before he passed), we tied our 28" pontoon sideways to the beach, water went down over night, thougt no big deal it always comes back up during the day, 4 days later the boat was 12-15 off the waters edge, had to leave dad there (i had to go back to work), he dug trenches, used wood and his old 79 ford f250 4x4 and pushed the sum bitch back into  the water, took him about 3 days to get it back into the water ( i think he was drinking and fishing more than anything), i have some pics someplace, i'll try to find them and put them up

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say that a few buddies probably did that just for shits and giggles . Roost was right , in one pic the boat is like 5 feet from the water line and then the rest it's like 20-30 feet. Not to mention in one pic the boat is sitting up perfectly and absolutly no damage to the bottom so it's not like as the water went dont the boat would have rocked a few times dingin the bottom a few times . Notice what perfect condition the boat is in too.
