Any tips on getting it out of there guys? I know a few people have dealt with this situation in the past.

DMI cable wrapper, shackles. Pull it into shallow water with the biggest boat you can get your hands on. There will be lots of silt in it. Use a honda water pump for a bilge and to rinse it out as best you can. Thats how we recover Vinny's boat.

YA, if he can't find a high HP boat, I think a 8000-12,000lbs winch on shore with a few fully charged batteries would work too. Hope that frt hook is strong....it's Gunna be one hell of a tug!

Looks like a good project, pardon my ignorance but l don't know the story anyone care to fill me in, or is this the race boat that went missing few months ago?

Ya you bet....Mac hit a large wave trying to pass another boat, and from what I heard, flipped it upside-down in the air. His Nav got out ok, but Mac struggled. That's a hell of an experience for a young racer in his rookie year!

pulled out a 19 sport 3 years back that ended up in 12' of water.It was on shore and he(dean) WANTED IT PULLED BACK TO CAMP AFTER AN UNSUCCESFUL trip between Lac Des Isles and waterhen lake.It had a crack in bottom middle.after first attemt boat filled with water and ended up sinking in12' of water.Dean plunged in 40 degree water to pull plug. bottom of lake and we pulled it up and it eventually emptied and we pulled it back to launch. It was a hard pull for awhile but it emptied after about 3 miles and we made across the lake without sinking again... we used 21' muskwa with 305hp and a heater. U could ask Dean how it went but he was cuddled under blanket behind heater..
