exact same thing happened to me except i got my boat launched and did not realize it till i had stopped and boat started filling with water. fortunately the plug was on the inside and was able to get boat going pull the plug and drain water as we were finally on plane and make back to boat ramp. and a livewell hose was not connected, must have happened at the factory. who would think to check that at dealer when boat was delivered? had a happy ending but i was very unhappy.

Gotta stop sooner or later then what. He said he never got the boat off the trailer or didn't you read his post.

This is so crazy! I was in some thick stuff fishing once and my buddy got hung up, when I backed up for him I bumped a stump and heard a snap (told myself it was a branch but deep down I knew what it was). I had nailed the drain port and cracked it, water comes in REAL fast!!

R&R marine in Pittsburgh lake tested my new Basscat Caracal. Great guys and will highly recommend them to anyone looking for a Basscat.

good to see you back jackson_ranger thanks for your service this week especially!

So I take new girlfriend fishing. Her Dad lives at Fork and is a quality fisherman. Im 50 fished all my life won a few tournaments and can launch my boat in the dark in seconds, Rope attached to trailer back in slide off boat pull up untie park truck n go... First time w girlfriend and I leave one strap on back. Unsure why boat won't slide I back up further. Boat is now off to the side , Cant pull up to get strap off. Im in the cold water trying to muscle bow back on. Finally get it right and go. Two weeks later were with Dad at a dinner. He ask her. how did fishing go ..... F

I was done with BPS and Motorguide when I contacted BPS (the only MG service location in DFW) about a three year old TM that went dead. "Bring it in"..... so I removed it from the boat and drove two and a half hours each way. After a couple weeks they called and said MG doesn't have parts for that discontinued TM anymore.
