In 1971 I was slinging fertilizer in Arkansas with a 47G-5 and it was misting out and the inside of the bucket was building up, so I flew over to a nearby creek to dunk the bucket and wash it out.
The creek was running fairly fast and started pulling me down river with a lot of over hanging trees.
I tried pulling it out, but even with the gate open the water wasn't going out fast enough, and I didn't want to call the boss and tell him I had punched off his bucket and lost it in the river.
After about a half mile ride the old G-5 finally pulled it out. I used stock ponds after that to wash out the bucket.
