Lost a cutterhead to a buried anchor chain on the Mississippi last Tuesday
Felt the vibration change and knew something was wrong before I even brought the ladder up. Took me 6 hours and a dive team to get it all untangled - anyone else found random junk in the river that just ruined your day?

Yeah I used to think anchor chains were no big deal but that changed my mind fast after pulling one up near Cairo.

Wow, really? What happened out there that changed your mind so hard?

Wait, a dive team? That's wild. Six hours for one chain sounds like a nightmare. I've snagged tires and junk before but nothing that serious.
