My Buddy and I launched at the Ferry in the AM....thought I was going to loose my jeep at the launch. My trailer brakes weren't working and even though I was pretty much standing on those in the vehicle, as a last ditch effort, jammed it in drive.
Finally got the boat in and my cranking battery was dead! Of course, I had enough power to put the motor down originally so then had to switch to get the trim working again so I didn't drag the skeg. I think one of the banks in my on-board charger is fried and didn't want to mess around so back on the trailer she went.
I hade my long rods with me too so made a stop at the Hydro plant with my buddy to at least wet a line. He had a good size salmon on for a while so made his day. It was his first salmon he's ever hooked and fought so we had a lot of laughs.
Wasn't a complete loss in the end and have to look at the positives...
Cheers, Paul
