Interesting... :detective:
So it sounds like you still have a chance to find it!
Keep a sharp eye out while you're looking. You might find Laters boat too. :D
Looks like your story has gone national.

The national exposure is good I guess. Now everyone will be looking for it. I hope the family gets closure but I really wanted to find that damn plane.Quote:

Some guy found this walking his dog.
Yeah I remember that. Funny thing is there were no roads near there so they think the car floated a couple of miles.Quote:

Here's a picture one of the Sherriff sent out yesterday showing what the sonar from their boat looked like yesterday.

They called off the search for now. I spent a few hours yesterday poking around.

I'm interested in knowing how a 2-4" rain impacts the water level, keep us posted Grads... :)
My search is over. Bummer! The lake has gone up 12 feet and is continuing to go up at almost a foot an hour. I felt like I was so close.Quote:
