Can HolyMoly forward him the new address in case he pulls the boat out this year?
Oh, my bad. Could make it interesting.
He not allowed here.
How do you know he's not allready here?
Actually...Later's already here.
I got him to reinstate the pulling up of the boat again (he gave up on it several months back due to all the red tape imposed on the pull) and this time he has an independant licensed/insured diver with all the necessary salvage equipment to do the job.
The reason he's wanting to go the route of doing it the right way and go through all the necessary red tape is to avoid any unnecessary fines that can be imposed on him by the water district, who owns and operates Lake Piru.
I spoke with him a few days ago, and the current situation is:
They have submitted all necessary paperwork to commence with the dive. According to him, the water district has to check the diver's licensing, insurance, workmans comp, etc etc (which his diver has and they have submitted). Once all that checks out, they have to inspect all the dive and salvage equipment and make sure that it all meets standards. On top of this...the dive has to be scheduled and a ranger has to be on site as well as the sheriff's search & rescue, so they have to coordinate with them to get people on site on the day of, which is why it needs to be scheduled.
They have been waiting to hear from the water district for about a month now, and have made countless phone calls and sent emails and have gotten no response from them yet. However, a couple of weeks ago the diver went out and did a stealth dive at the original coordinate that was given to him by Later. The diver found the boat...the boat is 15' off the mark and standing straight up. The boat went down ass end first and planted itself in the mud at the bottom of the lake. This means that when they do salvage the boat, they have to somehow break it loose from the bottom without ripping the hull and get the boat to where it's sitting on its bottom before they can lift it.
So the boat has in fact been found and verified that it is still at the bottom of the lake. Once they hear from the water district and get everything approved and scheduled, the diver estimates about 5-6 hours to get the boat resting on its bottom and lifted to the surface.
LOL you guys!!!
Jetaholic, let me know when they pull that bad boy up. I'd like to be there to take pictures and have later meet the "midget" in person. I'll even bring a bag of meth as a token of friendship.
You can't be fucking serious :fsakesActually...Later's already here.

Yes the diver actually found the boat...it is still down there. As far as how badly damaged it is we don't know yet...it's down about 55ft and it's pretty murky down there. But the boat has been found and it has not moved since it sank.
The funniest thing I learned is that down that deep apparently there are catfish over 6' long!!! How the hell can divers deal with fish that fuckin' big!? Maybe Froggystyle or other experienced divers can chime in on that one.
So, how does John feel now about all his conspiracy theories that people were trying to steal his boat, including Lake Piru?
I thought the boat was at 115'. Has the lake gone down 60'. Nice try but I'm not going for it.
Once that happens, everything should go like clockwork.
Are you forgetting this is a Later thread?
Nothing goes like clockwork.
C'mon....don't you have any faith? It is not like this guy let everyone down, repeatedly!!!
No faith at all and dont trust the slime ball.

Yes, in fact the lake has dropped that much. I actually thought it would be lower than that right now. During the late summer this year they dumped a bunch of water out of it, about half the total capacity I believe. Hell, maybe I will drive up there today and go take a couple of pics of the lake. The boat couldnt move too far considering it sunk near the dam.
Actually the boat hasn't moved at all. It went down transom first and stuck itself into the bottom of the lake, so it's pretty much trapped where it sits.
I have had many conversations with the Sheriffs Dive Team. The bottom of that lake is very dark and murky, and is full of silt and mud. Every winter alot of mud and debris dumps into it, so it should be stuck really good. The most time consuming part of the retreival will be just unsticking it before raising it. On a positive note we didnt get very much rain last year so the run off into the lake was minimal.
I'm game to go watch the festivities if the date is ever actually set. I want to see the UNBROKEN steering cable...lol

My jet was under for about 45 minutes and everything almost in the boat was FOCKED UP I can only imagine what shape this thing is in!!!!!!!
Could only have hoped it would die.
This whole thread is like the movie "Groundhog Day"
Now that someone let Later in here how much longer before all his alter egos start showing up.
My badStupid Later trying to fool us by updating his own posting. On one he wrote Santa Clarita and on the last post he changed it to Santa Paula.
Guess he didnt think about all of us quoting him and those not updating.
