Lost Scooter at LR

Yes, you read that correctly.

Looking for a (positively buoyant, apparently) Bonex Ecos+ that went missing today at Little River. We are fairly certain it fell into the water, floated down the Run, and is now driving its little heart out in the Suwannee. On the off-chance that it was in fact lifted by the local area thugs or ends up on a river bank down stream, I wanted to post to this community.

For those of you looking to make a few bucks this holiday season, diving the river in search of said scooter will be both encouraged and rewarded.

*Pops some popcorn and waits*

Oh man, so sorry...

Safe diving,

Rich

That happened to my strobe and camera last year. Exactly what happened. The next day I put my boat in at Silver Bluff, Rt 340 bridge/landing and drove upstream to just 1 mile south of Lil River and found it floating there on the east bank, tangled in a tree limb. Yeah, lucky. Hope you are so lucky too.

Wow! That's super lucky. Thanks for the info/suggestion.

Get Wayne involved... he loves to search the river and finds all kind of crap. Sorry to hear of the loss... hopefully it finds its way home.

Don't tell me what to do, Iowa.

(Already texted him. Great minds!)

Geez, that makes me want to vomit. I hope someone finds this thing for you

Good one, Richard.

No word on this scooter?
These scooters are fast, maybe check upstream too.. ;)
Jk, really hope this gets found.

Ha. Nah, nothing yet. My buddy dove my scooter there today and I held it by the leash above the mouth of the cave and it immediately tried to go down the run. Scary stuff. Hopefully a lesson could be learned here that will prevent it from happening to anyone else. My scooter is 3 times the length and much heavier. Very easy to see what happened, unfortunately.

Or your scooter missed it's friend and was going to find it. You should've let yours go too and see if they reunited.

All jokes aside. That sucks. I'd be sick to my stomach if that happened to me.

I highly suspect that they are pretty neutral, and wouldn't float very high out of the water. It would be hard to see a black scooter just below the surface in a black fiver. It might be worth filling a gallon jug with just a little air, and the rest water. Then let it go and follow it, to see where it goes.

Not a bad suggestion, Forrest. I shall pass it along :)
