Killer tower! your boat is sweet! So how much did all that work set you back? Are you still able to put food on the table!

[hanzj]

Thanks, I'm happy with the outcome.

It cost way too much!! Food....who needs that, I'm on the ketchup packet diet!

Nice. Where on Lewisville did you hit the sandbar?

[hanzj]

Leaving Pier 121, headed back towards the other side of the lake (Sneakys/35/hickory creek). Before the no wake zone between the short and long damn, there is a island that extended out about 100 yards 4 inches under water.

That night two other boats ran across it, but were going fast enough, or hit it in the right spot to make it across. The next day when we were pulling it off, another boat hit it.

[Matt Garcia]

Wow...never knew that was their. I know exactly where that is at. Thanks for pointing that out.

We've came close to it only a few times weve been over on that side of the lake. When we used to have a 31 ft. Formula cabin cruiser thing, we hit a sandbar right around their and 2 boats had to pull us out. We stay away from that part of the lake now.
