I had 10 trees taken down after the last ice storm to prevent this. I am making a test run tomorrow. Check this box to be notified of replies to this topic. Note: BBcode and smileys are still usable.

Hull crack is up high, about 6" under the gunwale. I water tested yesterday after I fixed the roller bars. All looks good, but I will fix that crack.
If that was an aluminum boat I would have been calling my insurance agent. It would have been scrap metal.
Thanks all, and Happy Memorial Day!
Be careful out there.
