Hey guys, I pulled out my old 12 ft alum. duck boat to see if the boat floated and the motor still worked. I hadn't used them for a few years. The 9.9 sportwin fired up on the 4th pull, and then I noticed I had a very small crack in the nose/floor of the boat. Most likely I had hit a rock or something. What can I do to fix this??? Will shoe goop, or JB Weld, or something like it work?
Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe. I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho. Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there. About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.
It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway. Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work. You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water. When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.
We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity.
