Hey Jeff,

Been busy and have not checked in on SB for a while, Wish I could join Ya'll on Sat. When I was up there doing the search for the plane crash victims the water temps were real nice was in the water several times a day and never got chilled. Just a word of advice......Stick to looking for teeth only. From what I saw once we found the wreckage I would strongly suggest that no one eat any Blue Crabs from around the Venice area for a while

I thought you were probably there. I hear you found two people, weren't 3 reported?

 

[Wildbill]

3 is what everyone thought at first because that's how many were supposed to be from Mich. (their home state). But we found out Friday that they dropped one passenger off at Venice. The wreckage was a mess, if it weren't for the tail section of the plane still being some what intact I wouldn't have been able to tell it was a plane. Could have fit the largest piece in the back of a full size van.

Anyway.......Sorry didn't mean to hijack your thread. :11:

I'll forgive you...THIS time

How far off the boneyard was this? It sounds like it was right on top of it.

Anyway.......Sorry didn't mean to hijack your thread. :11:

Well I would love to join on a weekend coming up, but will be doing it from shore...

Took the boat out for Sea trial last weekend and spun the same darn gears. Which either means the lower unit has pproblems or I have a bad carrier bearing in the intermaediate housing. either way I have a new outdrive on order and as soon as uncle sam pays out it will be installed and We'll be back out for another sea trial to run it in.

I need to get wet something feirce, I am dried out and need water.....

 

[ReefGuy]

Man, that sucks about the boat.

 

[SharkBaite]

yeah but what can we do about it. its the nature of boats. A hole that you throw your money into.
