[knock down]

it must have been the day for bad luck...went out sunday started off all was good started trolling just before the poormans weather was not to bad. as we got closer to poormans it got real squirly. we desided to move to the 30 fathom line when the engine overheated...lifted the engine cover and the thermostat hosing blew off the block stripped the bolts and everything.....we had no antifreeze a little water and alot of gatorade......never knew gatorade would work for antifreeze but thats what we did. about every 2 miles it would come back off and by the time we got it fixed we drifted back out 3 miles it was ugly......eventually we ran out of gatorade so we started pumping it out of the bilge into jugs......finally got it right and the last 40 mile went without a hitch....the ride back was a total of 7 hrs and no fish......ugh
