The dreaded clunk!
JohnnyD and I make it out to PH this morning with a live well full of bait when cruising at optimum for the engine (5000RPM, 32MPH) we hear a clunk (or thud or something) and everything is DEAD. We notice an oil/gas slick coming from the engine.
Glad I am an UNLIMITED TowBoatUS member as we wait for the tow from Sesuit Harbor (2.5hrs). We make the best use of time live lining macs and watching tuna jump all around. No hits.
4 hr tow to Sesuit, 1hr ride to Plymouth to get the truck/trailer, 40 min ride back to Sesuit, 1.25hr ride back to Wareham to drop off boat for repairs, 45 min ride home. Ahhhhhhhhh that beer never tasted so good (Priceless).
JohnnyD gets a friend to drive from Mansfield-to-Plymouth-to-Brockton to get his car. Good move JohnnyD and you owe that guy a dinner!
I'll bet Niko is saying, "whew" as he was unable to go today.
So go ahead, just ask me how my day went!
