I can't believe that someone hasn't suggested the obvious. Just invite a bunch of TBN members over and have them sit in the boat. I bet just a couple of us would do the job just fine. Of course I wouldn't suggest starting a fire under it, not sure if TBN stew would be safe for human consumption.

The OP should refill the boat, try the different suggestions (not the recipes) and report back.

I think a good leaf blower could empty it pretty quick.

Disagree with the leaf blower idea...I have a really powerful gas leaf blower and it does very poorly at removing water from a wheelbarrow tray, which is more shallow than a boat and has more gently sloping sides. I tried that method on a wheelbarrow this morning.

TBN at it's best. Suggestion, testing and reporting results!

I think this is like one of the silliest questions I have ever seen posed on this TBN.
Anyone who did not know all of the answers put forward on this thread already should have their man card taken away.

The question implies the card may never have been given...does it not?

To be sure, the best move would have been to make a real project out of it. U could have added a SSQA system to the boat and your tractor, thus creating a very manly bucket for your loader. Then, u could make another project of reinforcing the "bucket." Then, u could add stronger cylinders to the whole loader assembly. Then, with proper ballast of course, u could simply have driven to the location of your choice and dumped the water out of you brand new loader bucket.

Now, where could u get a toothbar, or rachet rake just the right length and shape for your new "bucket" lip?

Would be a cool project. Got pics?

But remember the rules here...no pics, then it didn't happen....:laughing: so my testing and reporting are only hearsay...

Get a sack of crayfish, dump them in the boat. In about 6 (+ or -) months, when they have multiplied and grown, throw in a sack of potatoes, sack of corn, onions, 10 bags of crayfish boil seasoning, light a fire under the boat, start drinking lots of beer while water comes to a boil. About the time everyone has eaten their fill, drunk brother in law will trip over the boat, flipping it upside down, scalding himself with the water you were trying to get rid of.

Hey, we gave lots of good ideas, which one you want to use...Pics, lots of them and what your final solution was...:thumbsup:

Second thought, Fill the boat with rocks(softball size)then after the water is displaced take the softball size rocks out.
