Wonder if some of those boats that floated out after the first day have any chance of sinking if they fill up with rain water.

Also, from the pics in the OP, it looks like offshoretrash's friends will have to come back and move the boat off of the dock once the water retreats.

This was the first OT/OB miracle I've ever witnessed from start to finish. I did absolutely nothing to facilitate the process, and it can be argued I may have interfered with it, but that doesn't dampen the feeling of satisfaction that I get for being a part of it.


You should have been here for the benefit for Josey's family. We raised well over $100k...

That was pretty cool watching the total donations, climb, then leap when Smack chimed in

The auction was incredible itself, unreal the power of good people

How's it looking at the moment? Parents have a house near the corney creek area. Was looking like slim hope as of this AM, but they are no longer there.

Hope yall stay dry brother. Hate to see what's happening in that area, but have a huge swell in my chest from how the community is taking care of one another.

My mom was in a similar situation and we needed to get two boats out of the camp that were on the trailers. I called some buddies to help out. After it was all over with my mom said she knows the size every mans balls down there.

She was talking about trailer hitch balls
