    Default Just my luck


    As luck would have it now that the fishing where I'm at is heating up my outboard decides to crap out on me. I had to spend 3 hrs working on it just to be able to fishing yesterday, and after I got it trailered to go home my throttle assembly breaks. I'm just gonna take it to my local mechanic and have him completely run though it and fix anything and everything. Means more over time at work for me. Ahhh, one day I'll have a nice boat like some of you folks. I know y'all had to work hard to get where you're at. Thank god I'm only 22 and blessed to even have a boat.

    You are blessed at 22 to have a boat. Hang on in there. We have all been there and done that with motor problems. I know for a fact that I have at least. Trouble does not last always. Soon you will be getting after the fish again.

    Just remember and be prepared! One good definition of a boat is; A Hole In The Water Through Which One Pours Money!! But I love it and wouldn't have it any other way. I'm 70 and been at it for 50 years. I sold mine last year and was so upset I backed out of the deal. My kids can use it or sell it when I'm gone.
