He effin dragged my boat for over 100 yards before the line snapped and then tried to screw!
I'm out 600' of line, 15' of 5/8 chain, a 22# anchor and a few shackles..I want it back! simple as that.
It's no different then someone running over your spread of 8 spreader bars cutting every single one and then simply turning a blind eye and denying it ever happened. or taking one of your penn 50's
