Live Stream Pulling 50Ton Crhis Craft off of Mtka…..

I’ve watched this fella yesterday and for a short time this morning.
Got himself and new to him boat and a predicament!

PS It’s not 50 tons. Under 40t but still large enough!

What a shi show…..

The idiots standing around the chains and straps are just asking for it….

I have Part one from yesterday is in the Metro Lake forum. Ice breaking across the lake.

What’s the back story on this?? Why I are they pulling it out now? And why in the hell do they not have a hydraulic boat trailer designed to move these boats??

Man some people have way more money then brains. It must be nice to just not care

The story is he was having a trailer custom made and it was delivered yesterday. He decided to go for it!

Maybe he should have started with 14 aluminum boat and a 10 hp Mercury.

Total ship show…
Hope this clown does not come to Superior…

Did this thing ever LEAVE the landing? What a moron.

Is this guy getting a fine or a hefty parking ticket for leaving it sit there?

You would sure hope. But the sad reality is it’s cheaper then storage for him and it’s probably just pocket change.

Anyone remember the bait shop across the street from the landing?

I sure do… And the bar close to it…

The bait shop was in the basement of the building. The Minnetonka Mist bar with a great patio overlooking Spring Park Bay. Do you remember the bait shop on the north side of the road about 1/2 way to Navarre from the access. It might be a veterinarian now.
The water patrol shares a parking lot with the access. The deputies must laugh everyday it’s still there.

Today, late morning.
Ground Hog Day!!

Went to look at the weather and saw this article on the front page.

https://www.kare11.com/article/news/local/yacht-left-on-boat-landing-sparks-lawsuit-filed-by-hennepin-county/89-801a7a4a-11f5-4e15-b96d-5cae191464c9

Wonder how fast they move it or if it will still just sit there.

The guy didnt have a plan when he bought the boat and doesnt sound like the guy has a plan to move it now.He blames the county for not working on a solution after the lawsuit is filed.The boat has been sitting there for well over a month now,plenty of time for the guy to come up with a plan for its removal.

Just the typical blame someone else for the problem you created.

I wonder if I can leave my boat any where and then blame some one else for being a dip shchmidt. 🤔 clearly another case of entitlement which comes often in that area. Money is everything

Trouble is if you or I did this someone would just take it LOL

Didn’t someone say the buyer is in another state? They were going to move it hundreds of miles away and had no plan for transport. At this point, in order to transfer it without open water, they are going to need to get a crane to lift it onto a trailer that can transport it.

Moving the boat is more complex than just hooking up his F150 and driving away. From what I’ve read it requires road permits and special type of convoy. To date I don’t think the county has granted those. This is just what I’ve read from people posting about it elsewhere. Could be all bullcrap idk. It’s definitely a S***show. Honestly I hope the lawsuit is a success. Guy needs to pay for damages at the very least and hopefully more

These things should be addressed long before winter. He has no trailer set up no plan no place to put it.
Nothing I hear is anything besides irresponsibility. 100s of big boats came off that lake. He was the one to choose to neglect it. Probably why no one would give those 2 owners storage.

They couldn’t store it because the previous owner told the marina they weren’t coming back. So the marina gave another boat access to the trailer they stored it on. Then the previous owner decided to sell it to the current owner, and he got a trailer built for it which was delivered in December. The trailer turned out to be a POS that is nowhere near roadworthy. Unless the owner required the design for the trailer, I don’t think you can pin it all on the owner.
