Almost sank my Explorer 250 yesterday. We were tooling around in one of our local creeks on a couple Polaris 250's. I was the brave one venturing into the deeper water and decided I had gone far enough when the water was over my headlights. I start backing up and turning at the same time only to find myself with the nose pointed up in the air and water over my seat in the rear. So there I am, hanging on the edge of a nice hole, I can't let go of the break or else it will roll into the hole and completely underwater. I can't let go of the throttle or else it will stall since the water is over the tailpipe in the rear, so I use my foot to push it into forward and gun it to get out. Wish we has a camera rolling....
