Was fishing in Maine a couple years ago.My friends boat wouldn't start for him.We were a long way out from boat ramp.This place has a lot of big boulders under the water that are not marked.I was towing him in at a slow pace.Unfortunately we didn't see the big boulder under the water and i ran right into it.There goes the lower end of the motor and my prop.We were about 50 yards from the boat ramp.
Had to use trolling motor to get us in.This was the first day of my three day trip.My friend took his boat to a have it repaired while i stayed and finished fishing around the ramp area rest of the day.It was his fuel pump.We fished three in his boat rest of the trip.
