How long is your boat? 14feet? We had a 12foot but a meathead guy I hunt with backed into it with a backhoe. Still trying to figure out how he pulled that one off considering it was tucked back out of the way pretty good. Little P'O ed about it actually.

I just bought a 14 ft StarCraft (6ft top beam) jon boat with a 25 hp Mariner, both with camo paint jobs. The canoe days, except for special situations, are no more. :D
