So what have you dropped in the water from your boat or dock?
For me....tools, hardware, a boat brush, a fishing rod/reel, cans of wax
and
a set of keys.. I was successful retrieving most of the metal items (if
they were worth it) using a large magnet the marina office had, a large
fish
net with extension pole (retrieved the keys with that) or a boat hook.
Never lost my cell phone or expensive sunglasses, although I did put a
pair
of fairly decent sunglasses on the hardtop of a friends boat and forgot
they
were there until we arrived at his dock. Those glasses were never to be
seen again.
How about you? ;-)
BTW: I admit this is fluff, but who the hell cares....it is boating
related
and not OT....eh?
Not recovered...
$150 pair of sunglasses.
$350 air compressor (don't ask)
My wallet ($100)
2 watches ($25 & $100)
3 sets of ski gloves ($25 ea.)
1 set of keys. ($30)
Recovered...
1 set of keys
1 shoe
Ratchet/socket
1 watch
Been pretty luck over the years considering. I also lost a pair of
sandals...left them on the bow of the boat, when trailering home.
