yep, the lake is a green color cause it's so clear. the plant life growing on the bottom of the lake gives the water a green color. emerald green. the lake is about 8ft deep where the boat was stuck and i could see right to the bottom it was so clear.
MY first time out with my Robbe Seawolf, I hit negitive box compression....a guy who came along in a kayack, got it back for me with a forked stick....man was I happy to see him.
Great recovery, good stuff, don't give up on it, you've got something there that a lot of folks could only wish they owned. Most of all thanks for posting. Al,
heh, hopefully i will be out there in the future and we can have bathtub races. that and maybe i'll bring this big toy...once i get it working propperly

@PatBALEX yes, this model was found in the local dump and all we had to do to it was put the radio system in it and do water tests on it.
