Macks on Easter Weekend
#17
[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3]Well, the boat ran good but Saturday morning when I was prepping the boat and hooking up the electronics in the front of the boat, I hit the foot control for the trolling motor with my knee and the prop spun, hitting the bow. I thought nothing of it.[/size][/black][/font]

[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3]We hit our first piece of real estate and everything functioned as expected. We moved to the second position and I dropped the electric and nada! No propulsion! What the heck?! I looked down over the bow and no prop on the electric trolling motor! Great! Now what? I think what happened is the prop and prop nut spun itself off when it contacted the bow.[/size][/black][/font]

[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3]I ended up fishing the rest of the weekend using the main motor which, BTW, is a royal pain in the behind! Luckily mother nature was pretty kind to us. Sunday had some wind and ran but we still managed a couple fish including our final and largest at 30 lbs.[/size][/black][/font]
