  • We've got a good one today. This Toyota pickup along with a trailer was abandoned in a creek for a year before we were able to go in and remove it. We want to say a special thanks to the ACC BOATR members who helped make this possible!

    Very good to see young people working to clean up their state. Me and my wife, in our late 60s and mid 70s, do the same here in southern Arizona.

    This video appeared today and im happy it did! Seeing these young guys do something good for the world we live in gives me a lot of hope. We all have choices in life, these guys chose to do good. I would be suprised they made enough from the scrap to cover expenses but they still did it, im sure there are many good people like this in the world we dont know of but i encourage everyone that watches them to subscribe. Lets keep their channel growing folks.

    Just discovered your channel. My body's stuck for now in Cali, but my head and heart are in the mountains and desert. My daughter and her family live in E. Ark, near the river. Love to visit that area when I can. I like watching offroad recoveries because someday I plan to be out there, and I'm watching how people get stuck and how the recovery people get them out. Looking forward to more videos by you folks.

      Sorry, a Key bounce posted an incomplete message. As I was saying, You are obviously upset by a comment that was meant to encourage. But you have not bothered to look back over the video to see just what was wrong for yourselves. It appears that you have taken the "newbe" attitude that I know it all, nothing else matters. OK I'll point out one Glaring dangerous mistake, then you go look for the rest there are 3 bad ones, and if you can't see the rest for yourself??????? you figure it out.
      All the way through this recovery you have a "man" in the firing line should a line break, especially as you didn't even check for that obstructions, or you would have seen the log behind the back wheels putting eve more strain on the rope now go look for the rest. and one of the "Just things a winch user would normally know" might pay to know just how long an electric winch can run for, with out rest/cooling.

      We found out about it through some local canoeing groups, they do regular river cleanup days and this was a large item they wanted to remove. Just happened to work out that we could help

    I think if you changed the title of your video to something like,//'' watch your folk clean up auto trash from pristine river environment '''' you might get alot more likes and subscribes....the beginning could be cut shorter as well....but good to see you folks looking after nature..
