Was poking around the net today and came across this pic. Really sucks. I assume it is in CT, but not sure when

Nothin' a little gel coat patch & paint... some new seats, and an engine rebuild can't fix!

Man - that'd be a tough phone call to get.

Of course, the assumption is that it wasn't intentional. I hope that's the case.

As the economy continues into the tank I fear we'll see more - ahem, "losses."

When I was a two boat owner, I used to pray that something like that would happen (i.e. tornado, fire, theft). Unfortunately, I had to get rid of my other boat the old fashion way, write a $10,000 check to unload it! :(

I heard there is a recall on the 5.0 with carb. Wonder if it had anything to do with it?

No matter how many times I look at the "before pic", I still can't see a boat.
