Tom, put on your boat knowledge hat for a minute. I'm being offered a Key
West, 18', CC, with the Yamaha 4stroke 150 HP and aluminum trailer for
about $28K.

A Scout, with the same engine, etc, would run about $4-5K more. Are they
worth it?


I prefer the Scout over the Key West in that size boat. Very similar
to my Ranger in terms of fit and finish, it's fairly well thought out
for a smallish CC an

And now, I'm going to detail my Ranger and maybe fit in the
Princecraft in between mowing/trimming three lawns.

WHOO HOO!!



Once you get the wax-on, wax-off down straight, pop on down here and
I'll let you wax a real quality boat with three piece construction, and
a quiet, fuel-efficient outdoor motor. I don't know or care where
Herring is going to use his new boat, but I do wonder why he needs 150
hp on a 1500-pound boat. Seems to me a 115 hp Yamaha would be a better bet.

My boat project for this morning is getting the damned Maryland
temporary registration stickers off the boat so I can affix the
permanent ones. These temp stickers must have some sort of superglue on
the back, because, unlike all the other stickers I have encountered,
they have resisted the storebrand un-stick-um goop. My heatgun burned
itself up three years ago. Grrrrrrrrrr.

*Then* I get to mows the lawn.


Harry, you have *me* filtered so you don't have to read my posts, remember?

Now, I *don't* have you filtered.

What that means is that you can respond *directly* to me, without all the
third party pretense bull****.

Does that make sense to you?

Borrow your wife's hair dryer. It will work wonders.
