Title: Dropped off the trailer.....
Post by: CJ LaCour on October 20, 2025, 06:37:01 PM
Not the call I expected to get Friday morning.....

Apparently in the process of doing some tree work a club volunteer moved my boat from its parking spot, hit another tree, and knocked it off its trailer. The keen eyed among you will notice the broken trailer strap on the bow, that had actually parted before this incident, and I had the replacement in my vehicle already; just hadn't installed it yet. That said, had that been attached I wonder if said person would've just snapped the rig.

So, Nationals on hold for me, unless I get on a different boat. The individual involved was appropriately apologetic and has offered to cover damages, which hopefully is just a very thorough and extensive bottom job and maybe some work on the keel trunk. I'm posting here because there's a lot of knowledge that could be gleaned, but fortunately there are some local people that are pretty knowledgeable.
