Over ten years ago///
I have pictures of one year// 14inches at the slip==put the boat in gear ,hit the gas , got it up on the ice ,pushed it across the channel to the boatramp ==on the trailer///
We were digging thru the ice and you had to make holes with those big two man tree saws or chain saws ,there were guys making good money by charging by the HOLE,,
It sucked when you knocked yourself out to make a hole only to find slim pickings///
but back then when things got difficult and the product was scarce ==the price was great ==now it went up a whole 2 cents ==they don,t need Ri clams like they use to ==with all the places farming/////
only time the boat moved is when John & I launched it ,we took a short run ,ever since shes just waiting, and because I don,t have my s/s wheel on it yet ,I don,t want to brake ice because the prop thats on it is a aluminum loaner, ne piece of ice and its history//////////////
