The pics were taken the next morning after the sun had come up and started drying that side. |

Damn, that must have been a pretty deep hole on that side, to be high-centered like that. |

Yes, I can. This is original, never before seen picture of the sinking of my 1st H2. I had a water mark on the passenger's inside door handle. FYI, the engine ran the entire time without drawing water past the plastic intake vent. I almost went to the hospital for hypothermia from trying to dig it out in 38 degree water. That sucked.  |

Re: Stuck In The Mud & The Recovery
This is the same hole 6 months later. My buddy's Zuki had 39-40" Iroks on and he got stuck too. Notice how much lower the water is.

Re: Stuck In The Mud & The Recovery
Do you own jeans Drty? 
You guys are sum muddy monkeys. Recovery is kinda fun when the weather is nice. I would say sorry, but the pics are kinda awesome. No damage right?
The first sinking looks awful.  |

You're talking about the stock intake tube? Are you saying the water never reached the point, or that because of the design, the water wasn't drawn in?

The water never got past the plastic piece on the side of the fender wall. |
