Trashed my BRAND NEW RZ4....stupid morons...
So I finally picked up my brand new Tige RZ4 2 weeks ago and love it! Rode the crap out of it and actually had to take it in after 4 days to have the break in service done. Decided to take it out one more time with some friends this past Saturday before heading back offshore...only to have those nasty gremlins and a drunk dumbass wreak havoc on me. Stereo crapped out (luckily was just a bad ground connection), winch strap on the trailer broke while loading it, and looks like some assclown in a pontoon hit me while docked at the marina when we were eating....Some people just shouldn't be allowed to be on the water.
Hoping the smaller one will be pretty easy to fix, the big one up top however is through both layers of gelcoat all the way into the fiberglass http://i885.photobucket.com/albums/a.../IMG_17921.jpg http://i885.photobucket.com/albums/a.../IMG_17931.jpg |
I just threw up

EEEEEK!!!! Soo sorry to see!!! Can you track that guy down and make him pay?? Maybe there were some cameras at the marina...?

My thoughts
As far as the winch goes you would be better of sinking that trailer and not power loading your boat. It looks like you have a black hull and the quickest way to scratch up the hull is to power load or crank that winch hard b/c you did not sink the trailer. I have a black hull and i tell truck driver to make the exhaust tip touch the water. As far as the drunk dumbass - make that the first and the last time he goes out in that boat! Scratches happen - it can be fixed |
Awful. Really sorry that happened to you. I assume the other driver is paying and there were witnesses.

Judging by the gouge, that would have been a pretty hard hit by the pontoon. Sorry to see these, althought its fixable, it still very hard to swallow.

One of my bunks cracked and put a gouge similar to that in my boat a few weeks ago, on the bottom of the side of the hull though. Pretty similar in size, but deeper, through the glass and into the foam.
$300 at the shop, can't even tell anything happened. Shouldn't be too bad of a bill for you. I cringed when I showed my gf this. Very nice boat though! Sent from my futuristic Apple device while in my office doing nothing. |

thats a drag dude!
I can't handle people like that, I don't go to the lake on the weekends unless its december... I stick to weekday evenings. |
Why would you peel off all the vinyls? Just cut it so it looks like it supposed to be there. I scratched them on my G23 and you can hardly noticed I did so.
