    No more river fishing for a while.....

    I was taking the jet to get some work done when I got T-boned coming through an intersection. I had a green turn arrow and the other guy ran a red light. I am waiting for the insurance company to contact me to see what they are going to do to either fix or replace what is damaged. The good news is that nobody was injured in the wreck and the stuff can be replaced.

    Thanks guys. I still have the Stratos to use but I just can't get to some of the sweet spots in it. Just a bummer it happened. Not sure what the other guys insurance is going to do yet. I'm still waiting to hear from them.

    I need to check all the mounts for cracks. Only thing I checked so far on the motor is the trim.
