Skis sink at Mud Bug

[NCHeel]

If iDizzy asks you to ride your ski, just say no. He sunk his ski then got on BDNJ's ski and the carbon seal failed in 5 minutes.

Can I ride yours?

[J-ME]

If you ask me carbon seals are stupid

[idizzy]

Well I found the problem with my ski. Talk about a triple threat!
1- Carbon seal is cracked and chipped.
2- Exhaust manifold inlet hose came off.
3- Entire bottom of waterbox blew out creating a huge hole for water. Remember I had a straight exhaust pipe so the water could come back into the boat.

Any of these three things could sink the boat and I had all three!!!

Did it 'literally' sink or were you able to save it?

geez, gotta love #3. Just it case the the first two weren't catastrophic enough, there had to be a total kill shot in there.

im surprised you weren't hit by a rogue bolt of lightening too.
