      Sounds like your insurance policy worked for you...

          A cold chill just crept up my back, reached my neck, and continued down along my arms.

          Thanks for the goosebumps,,,,NOT.

            Hit my rock three years ago and ruined the prop. I didn'tt realize that i accidentley left my map locked in a previous cove when I checked a landmark on the screen. Won't do that again. Gary

              I hit lots of rocks in various lakes around Arizona.

              What insurance company do you have?

                In 15 years, I have never hit a rock.

                Guess mine's still in my future :surr

                  But I have been aground, although on a harmless eelgrass shore. Required help, was not happy or proud, but learned a great deal that day. I have rendered assistance because of that day, as well. I lifted my drive a little before I got pulled off, no damage, no foul, right?

                  I did hit "something" in Friday Harbor marina at low tide by the pumpout station. No harm, no foul. I hope that maybe that is my rock!!??

                    The closest I've come was docking at this one place. You'd figure dock areas would be at least 3 feet deep, guess again. A couple little nicks to straighten out on the prop was it though, luckily. Then had to come close in Ashtabula, right off the dock it's 2 feet deep and I didn't realize it.
