Spanish lake/ BR aluminium welder
 

went to check out some blinds in spanish lake, (or the lack there of), water is down about 6 foot and there is only about 5 inches of water in the main canal.

saw some deer, coons, gators, ducks, and the biggest cypress trees ive ever seen, one live one going 8 foot across,

the other was a dead stump going at least 12 foot.:eek:


anyway, coming back in, right at the launch, I hit some submerged re-barb under a bridge.


hole in the aluminium is about 2 inches long and 1 inch wide.

right up front.


anyone know someone in baton rouge who does boat welding?

thanks

ill post a video of the ride, and a pic of the hole later on

Where is Spanish Lake????

St. Gabriel

Call Boats Unlimited 357-3118 in BR.....they have a welder they contract out.......

any idea on what he charges?

Man I would assume 100 - 200 bucks.....You know how that is, it will cost you X amount just to get them out there...Ask for Kim services and tell her you know POX. She will give you a big discount....

There is a Spanish Lake just N. of New Iberia also.

Bring that thing down to the highway 22 exit off I-10 take a left.
Gaudet's is on the left less than a half mile down.

Tell Clint Damain said to give you a college boy deal.

Spanish lake is being drained, it was never a "lake" be design of nature...it was just a spillway of sorts.

it was damned by man to hold water.
The light in the loafers boys have been fighting the draining for a couple years

yeah, i just wish they would let some water stay in there man

If you weld is not hard to get to..........It should not cost more than $ 50.

I had some Al welding done a couple of months ago. I think it cost me $ 30.

thats what I was thinking ,but I didnt remember seeing any trees that big ,or a bridge.lol

I can weld it for you,but im in lafayette.

Montauk. I may take you up on that
