When my electical/machanical stuff gets wet, I usually put it in the airing cupboard to dry, have you thought about putting the outboard in your airing cupboard?

I hereby demand you get someone to film said salvage so we can all have a giggle later, if its anywhere near as comical as this thread it could be epic.

haha, if i can find someone to do it, i shall.

and I thought about the airing cupboard - outboard is too big! Perhaps on top of a radiator...

I can't sea it being too difficult to rescue

Hope it's plain sailing from here on..

Sorry to hear about your boat...best of luck salvaging it.

Oh some of the posts are just scraping the bottom, a few of you are funny but I think you need a stern talking to, its no laughing matter, a squall of insensitive posts and the poor guy is probably going overboard with grief.

I think you need to drown your sorrows in a nice glass of port.

I bet you feel like a right anchor for not taking out insurance though!

Is that salt water?

*Moangroan* · 2 Sep 2009 at 17:14

I know nothing about boats...will it be repairable.??

On the bright side your boat is now a submarine.

howsertrading · 2 Sep 2009 at 17:20

If it is salt water, do NOT remove the engine from the sea until you are ready to attempt the salvage.You need to start flushing it with fresh water the second it comes out of the sea.

Is it not still technically floating? I think you're just being picky.

Rroff · 2 Sep 2009 at 17:34

By the looks of it its resting on the bed so not floating...

Heres hoping its salvageable.

Don't think of it as losing a boat, think of it more as gaining a submarine.

You shore it was the weather? It looks fishy to me...

You could always tell people you have a submarine instead.

Sorry I laughed when I saw the photo...

But also sorry it happened. I'm guessing nothing you can do now?

Atleast it hasn't gone adrift from the topic.
