I hope that's a Photoshop deal! If not, the hull might have some dents but it would still be a repairable boat.

PS: We don't have enough water in the Elk River for anything like that. In the below photo, the entire area shown is only 2 feet deep at low tide.

Correct. It works pretty nicely, though I regularly forget to put the, ah, drain plug in before lowering it (and that with TWO "Is the Plug In?" warning stickers on the handle and on the hoist.) The OB pictured is a mere 20 hp twin. I'm be running a 65 hp triple this year with electric starting.

Not yet!

I "discovered" electric starting. Since this includes an alternator, I started dreaming up all kinds of electrical ggizmos to add. Working on a homemade trim system.
