Picture of my buddies trolling motor. Make sure it's locked into place or strapped down before heading home. Did I mention it's a $2K+ ipilot unit. hammer

Ouch. I once forgotten to tighten the lugs on a $25,000 haycutter, fortunately it was a $200 fix.

I don't think duct tape will fix that.

We've had a lot of storms recently in the area. Maybe the adjuster will buy that it's "hail damage" lol

Dang, that sucks pond scum. Never had one bounce over on me and even if I did, it wouldn't hit the pavement. That thing must have a seriously long shaft.

Damn

Unfortunately a thing like that is pretty easy to do. Kinda like forgetting to plug your hull before launching. I can tell from personal experience on that you only do it once!!! eek2
