Diver around Paducah?

[Barry]

Mark, I thought that there might be a chance. Since I'll be in the area this weekend anyway figured it was worth a shot. My hope was since its in the Tennesse River with a some current most of the time that the 'mud' wouldnt be as bad and figured that the lower unit would be flat on the bottom that it wouldnt move? I know its unlikely but I really would like to have my prop back. x(

Leaving tomorrow night, I'll see you there,

I'm heading down at the same time---call me. Good Luck--I know it really #### losing that whole lower section. Did you get it fixed or did you get another boat?

Are you talking about the guy from the Plapp's Classic who ripped off his lower unit?? Surely someone is not going diving for that. They hit something and I can't see where one could save money by getting a destroyed lower unit from the bottom of the river?

Mark, is this the boat that Eric Snow was using at the Rumble??

Matt---yes.

I would have to think, by the looks of what I saw, the lower unit casing is thrashed. The bolts were still in the engine holes with ripped metal around them. With rust, corrosion and the time and effort to get it...I would think it would cost more than the couple thousand, or even cheaper if you find a used one. Just me, but then I may be biased since we sell them:D

Good luck, let me know if I can help in any way whether you find it or not. I'll do what I have to on discounts for one of our tournament anglers.
