Glad to see I'm not the only one to have these types of days occasionally. Part of life, part of Murphy's law: if it can happen it will.

I have a Bro-in-law that sunk his d-boat in a stretch of river he has seen me go through 100s of times. First time he does and a tree branch catches his anchor rope on top of the anchor bracket. He tries to free it and it drives the stern under. Next thing ya know and "The Fat Lady is Singing" cause it is all over.....

Posh II, losing a trolling motor like that had to hurt - mentally. Not much ya can do after that but call the insurance company...
