well like the title says. we got the call of a 20' wellcraft that sank late yesterday. so first thing this morning we headed out. this poor boat was in a very deep slip. it required 3 air bags to get her up. from what I was told by the marina management is that the owner doesn't want it any more so I put in first dibs on it. hopefully I will know by the end of the week. hopefully it won't sink again!

Nice work capt pete. good luck with it.
How did it sink? and Where? just sent my slip rent in today for the summer at causeway boats.

I believe the boat sank from lack of interest. the boat is in Shark River. the marina management said the boat hasen't been out of the water in a few years and they believe the motor is blown. the only problem is that the closest ramp is about a mile away. i figure i could put a kicker motor on it to run it over to the ramp. Did you notice in the first pic there is a seal sitting on top of the boat? It was pretty funny

At first i thought it was a dog....haha

I'd question the seal....he looks a little guilty.

It looks like an '84 or so model......so much for the idea that theres enough foam in it to keep it from sinking.

Or was it the lack of a good seal the reason it went under? :)

Did not notice the seal the first time through. Hilarious! I just thought it was flotsam of some sort.
