    That sounds like a really good idea. I think i might have a way over there this weekend. I have a few good fishing rods and some pretty big magnets. I hope this will work. Thanks guys.

    I sent a local diver out to find the remains of my 51" mono after an unusual wreck, he found it in about 4 minutes and i gave him the full $100 he charges for the first hour cuz i was so happy. I salvaged $500 worth so it was a good deal.

    To bad about your loss, how ever stainless steel is not magnetic.

    Solid stainless isn't. But try your stainless prop. Or even some silverware that says stainless.

Long story short they told me i would have to go buy a new boat. If anyone has any ideas as to how i can get a new boat from proboat let me no. I really don't want to have to buy another one. But if it comes down to it i might.
    I hope you wouldn't buy another ProBoat!

    Yupp stainless is magnetic except for 316. That is how I got my prop shaft, flex shaft, and prop out of the lake when my home made coupler crapped out on my surge a couple weeks ago.
    If the magnet doesn't pull it all the way out, at least you will have a much better idea of where the boat is and a guildline down to it if you find a diver.

    There is usually a diver for police/fire departments.
    We had a park ranger that was on a dive team who went in to find one of our boats.
    Even took his photo with the downed boat with his wet suit on.
