Side impact from a forklift?

Aqua_Aura

Yeah that looks like it was broke on the rack and the out down oil absorbent.

He has a nice ding on the outboard prop also.

With no skeg damage, that has to be a side impact.  

aero3113

Did he always have the holes for a skeg guard? Could it have cracked when they drilled the holes?

It's a Powerquest with twins. Had stainless skeg covers. That what the thru pin holes are for. Obviously the piece is missing now.

Man I hope it wasn't from forking it in & out of the water.
Really good split in the bottom of the gearcase. If it was a bottom strike the stainless cover must've taken the hit.

Gonna find out for sure. Hope his summer isn't wrecked. Hard to get service & parts.

found a deal I couldn't turn down. Not perfect but daily driver condition with working AC.  Efi 22re and 5 speed.  Sadly it's 4.10 gears but i have a set of 4.30s at the house.   I needed a fuel tank for my diesel 4 runner swap...how do I tell the admiral?

Some people bring home lost puppies. You bring home lost vehicles.

I'm half tempted to put this one on BAT and see what where it goes.

Good call fellas. Tech told me damage was from forklift.

He wasn't making excuses for the fella that caused it - but he said that Powerquest is a tough boat to fork. With the narrow beam & twin motors, there's not much room to miss with the forks. 

Unfortunately for the owner I'm guessing the repair will be tough to solve in short order with backlogs. I'm sure marina will expedite best they can.

tough luck .there goes the season or a least a few weeks

Bravo 3 lower end about $4000.....if you can find one.

Aqua_Aura

Good thing he has twins. His boating season will just be a little slow this year 😃

Seems like it could be welded for a temporary fix if the drives are gonna be many weeks out for delivery and install.

Just that there's like NO scratches on the drive at all, not even on the side. An impact that hard, you'd expect to see scratches all over the black paint. Maybe the scratches are on the opposite side?? 

That does look ugly and expensive. Wow.

Fourth of July on the boat an seen thru a drone.

I built the pergola by myself, was supposed to have a friend help but he couldn’t make it. I also lugged and laid the stone down. I still have to dig them in and set them. The pergola has adjustable louvers, pretty cool. Very happy! Took me two full days to do both.

I would not have laid the stone on the grass

It needs it there, gets very wet.

aero3113

I have enough grass in the backyard to play with, LoL!

Sand base

Yes, that’s what I’m planning on.

House and pool look awesome though

What's missing from that photo.  Answer:  No boat on a trailer.

aero3113

You’re right @LaRea !! Except I block it.

I like the stone, it looks really good and Will looks even better once you set them. 

Thank you @shawnmjr

Nice set up Aero.  Are those stones precast or natural local stone? We have a lot of slate here, nothing on the white side unless you buy precast concrete pavers.

Ian

Looks sweet @handorando…

aero3113

@halifax212 they are precast. There actually grey/tan. For some reason they look white in the pics. If you look behind the pool we had a retaining wall put in with natural stone.
