New air compressor... $800. Also had fishing line on the prop which ate through the seal on the lower unit enough to let most of the gear case lube out. Really, that was lucky to figure that out after this happened and get a new seal on it rather than have the lower unit eat it too.
Bass boats are a complete pita. Everything breaks constantly. I've replaced nearly everything on my boat it seems like. Trolling motor, wires, breaker, batteries, battery trays, charger, fish finders, pumps, props, the list goes on.
I took the old air compressor home with me to let my son have some fun taking it apart. When we pulled the air nozzle thing off, shards of metal shook out of it. It was totally destroyed on the inside. Kind of a joke that a 6 year old part like that would just self-destruct.
Once that thing is toast, you can't go anywhere. Boat won't start. Nothing.
Editing the video is a huge chore. Email me....

Great videos Rob! I have to ask though...where do you store that net! That thing is big! To fish is to live!
