Sunk the boat in HavaScrew! pICS

We got a couple of good days out on the eliminator out in havasu. came sunday as we were outside BBQ'ing we noticed it was sinking!
So all the guys tried to tighten up the ropes at we ran the Pump. We stood no chance against the wake of Parker's water with all the cig boats and wake boats. So we called up Salvage and they charged us 800 buck to send a scuba down to attach air bag to it. then we had to drag the boat down river a lil till we could find a ramp with lil or no wake. and i ran to my truck and yanked her out. Thank god for 4x4 and insurance!

Why is it when I look at this picture the tune, "low..ri..der" starts playing in my head. Dun.dun.dun.dun.dun.dun..dun....dun.dun.dun..dun.d un

That's the first boat I've seen with airbags... where's the fuzzy dice?

Drain plug was in and no holes! it was just too much wake from the monster boats out there this weekend that just swamped the boat from behind

And for the MIRRORS i will check the box to see what company makes em i have no link i got them at FAIRWAY FORD in Placentia, ca @ there sport and performance shop. i think they were 27 a peice im trying to find a way to take out the spin lock that holds em on to maybe a star socket so they cant be jacked with all these F150s around now!

0h ps if you dont have a lifted truck dont get the mirrors they look very uneven to me on my friends stock fx4.

Sorry to hear about the boat, hope you get it dewatered and working again. Those mirrors look like the **** slip-ons. The part number is: 11800 for the pair. I have a set and love them.
