Default Imaginary lobster?

A cursory search disclosed a 65 foot steel offshore lobster. I don't
think it's very Zimmerman like. Maybe longliner like. I am going to
imagine I wrote a check for the 200 000. If I lived in Maine, not
Iowa, I really would buy a fair sized lobster. Find some guys and send
them out on shares. There is a 20 footer for sale for $7500, but that
is a bit small. On a slightly related note, there is a used 19 foot
Boston Whaler for 35 000. An outboard. Those people are obviously
nuts. Buys like my two grand 22 foot aluminum sterndrive are not
particularly scarce. There are going to be a bunch of unemployed boat
owners. Maybe even an affordable 35 foot Zimmerman like Lobster. Or
ask Zimmerman to build a lobster like yacht. Whatever.

You never know. He seems to be in the process of liquidating his
assets. The LT boat will probably be offered up soon.


If you are referring to me, you're, as usual, wrong. I'm merely
clearing out some of the old for some of the new. I'm not a pack rat.
I always sell my desktop computers after a year or two.

As for boats, at least I would have a couple to sell, if I were so
inclined. You are boatless.

As a point of information, I am indeed looking at a new boat, and if
I decide to go ahead, I would be selling the other boats, but for the
canoe.

I'm sure if you pooled your resources with some of the other "done
nothing in life" types here, you'd have enough to buy a new rubber
ducky, eh?



You were doing so well up to your last sentence, where you completely
disintegrated into a puddle of poo. Sad to see that happening.



Ahhh...your Navy pension provides enough so that you could buy your own
rubber ducky? Good for you.


You're still in the poo puddle. Relax. Take a deep breath, and try again.
