  2. You're a good friend to have for many reasons, but certainly when toys get stuck (or sink)! That looks like a nice boat that was sunk… hopefully the fix isn't too terribly expensive – it'll be worth it to have it back in use, that's for sure!
    The buddy you are talking to at 16:30 hasn't spent a lot of time with his shirt off yet this summer😎 lol. Now you know how most ladies feel when they wear tank tops or t-shirts for most of the summer, haha!
    I have always wanted to visit Lake Powell. The houseboating, the speed boating, skiing, fishing, floating, etc. It's a stunning place. I would pay a lot of money (that I don't have😂) to get there and spend a week or 10 days on a houseboat (with access to a ski boat). Sad it won't happen, but maybe I can get my daughter there some day. She'd have a blast! Summer fun is here!

  3. So disappointed about how you guys went about this recovery. You guys normally do stuff so professionally but this was amateur hour on meth. Not sure what you were thinking. So unnecessary to completely destroy that boat.

  5. What a stupid design for a boat. The major benefit of a pontoon boat is that the hulls are compartmentalized. Even within a single hull there are compartments, so if there is a hole it won’t flood the rest of the hull, not to mention an entire monohull.

  6. I guess the insurance was probably going to "total" it anyway… but rolling it over and tearing off the rack and thrashing one whole side rolling against the rocks pretty much seals the deal… still a super GREAT recovery!! Really good that it's out of there because, if it had sunk, the environmental impact fines for all that gas and oil would not have been pretty ugly. (let alone sad that it leaked into the lake) I had my houseboat impounded at Powell-Wahweep for a fuel filler hose that had dry rotted and came completely apart without warning. While at the fuel dock it leaked a crapload and by the time the fuel girl stopped pumping it caused a giant fuel slick. – This closed the fuel dock for several hours while they put out absorbent mats and booms and went into full-on fire protocol. Needless to say, our insurance company cancelled us after they paid the EPA fines. Along with varying fines, the EPA statute also says 1 year in jail if convicted of negligence. and the lawyer said if we were pumping our own fuel, that would likely have applied. – potentially due to negligent maintenance.

  7. The overpriced pontoon must be fast, the hull is shaped like the Mach 5. It must be priced by technology of the wake it produces? I just don't see what makes it so expensive. Just like Dave's boat cost more than a house. I don't see it.
