I've had several over the years. Only two really stick. First one was running crab traps in v bay with my grandpaw in rough seas. We were in my 14' alweld at the time. Waves started coming over the back of the boat and we sunk in seconds. Good thing we were in shallow water and we pushed the boat on the bank and bailed it out. No harm done to the boat or motor. Second one we were lucky to make it out alive. My dad and I were fishing a bass tournament in the basin out of bayou beniot. We hit a mud flat running 75mph just south of the GA cut. Lost control of the boat when the motor came out the water. We ended up sideways headed to the bank.....hit a wooden dock and tore up a brand new skeeter. We walked away with minor cuts and bruises.
