Have any photos of the interior gotten out? And how go her travels so far?
Such a contraption couldn't handle the up/down-side to side stresses caused by wave action, nor get the towed boat far enough back. In addition,...
Good choice but i think it's disqualified by 4,3,2 and 1. In fact I think 4, 3 and 2 just about take him out of motor range leaving him with a 30...
Marmot, I agree with you 100% (especially about going elsewhere), but some are there. Where I fleeing such a situation would I pop off a few...
