    Grenada is the only lake that's ever torn my boat up. Got a big gash in my hull up near Redgrass a few years back. I did learn to fix Fiberglass the next weekend tough LOL Actually pretty easy but you have to take your time and do it right

    I was running about 50 headed over to skuna, in the middle past the big bluff. It must have been an underwater log. Used all my batteries up coming back, north wind, floated past the dock with no power to turn. There was practically nobody on the lake that day. Someone finally came along and pulled us off the bank. I'm glad it happened in the morning instead of late afternoon.
