Help Bert Vega! - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

buddha · 02-11-2014, 12:56 PM

Bert is a new kayaker and sadly he lost his mirage drive last week.

He is grounded he told me until his significant other lets him get back on the water. That is ridiculous and not masculine if you ask me!

I say let's help him get back on the water and get him a new mirage drive.

I will chip in 20 bucks to start until we find enough people to get him a new drive.

Who else is in?

I'll chip in $30 as I feel it is partly my fault for not providing enough instruction on how to properly land. Keeping my eye out on CL and other sites for something decently prices. Almost had the wipe out on film, camera was turned up too high of an angle to properly catch it.

Where did he lose it. Is it a place where you can free dive to look for it.

Has he tried to get a second job?. That's what I had to do when I needed or wanted something. Maybe someone will buy it for him, its worth a try.

Sounds like an expensive lesson.

Wow guys I really dont know what to say. Thank you for this. I appreciate it allot. It really shows how tight a group of people are on this forum. With that said I can not accept anyone chipping in for a new drive. I have money to buy another. I am just on hold for a week or so. I just spent about 6k in just over a months time getting into this hobby. And the warden is a little heated that I am going to spend another 600 for a drive on top of the other things I plan on getting and doing. This is just a minor setback. I do not need a second job. But do agree with if you need something work harder to get it.

Again THANK YOU JEFF & CHRIS for this. Its to super awesome of you both.
