Although the usual launch for us is over at Jordan, son and I decided to spend a few hours out there trolling the ramps off the main marina prepping for next week's High School tourney. Water seemed a little high, but manageable.

That said - anyone know about the abandoned Skeeter out there off the dam? Saw it driving to the marina and wondered what was up. Ran into a buddy at the ramp and he had already called it in. No gear on it - said it had been there for a couple days - authorities notified. Nobody just leaves their boat out there like that - when we saw it the rig was half beached parallel to dam. Not a good situation.

If someone wrecked and was missing, hopefully we would have heard about it. Could it have broken free from somewhere?

It's been there since yesterday. GWs said he ran out of gas and battery and walked up the rocks to the road.

Figured someone would have recovered it by now - glad to hear there weren't any missing bodies.

Maybe they have good insurance so no hurry lol

This thread title sounds like a drink name.

"I'll have a skeeter on the rocks please"

If that were my boat, I would want it off the rocks ASAP

Free boat, just add gas.


Appears to be around a 2000 year model.

Some stupid f-ers don't deserve decent boats.

Yup, that's her rolling over - good pic

Hmm, a new drink! Hell, i was asking if anyone could use a free skeeter

Agreed - some people don't deserve decent s**t

Seriously? The GW did not help them recover the boat? Interesting.

Craigslist ad next week: slightly used, garage kept Skeeter for sale

I got dibs on the trolling motor
