You forgot the Seidelmann 30 .



No, everyone else did. Just as they did the Yugo and International Scout.

You're still so easy to hook. What's wrong with a Scout? They're great
little trucks.

dougie, I left the corporate rat race some time ago. I stayed around the last
few years only because they were paying me far more than I was worth. [grin]

This time last year it wasn't.

And that, in your opinion, constitutes a three day weekend? Maybe this
accounts for your spotty employment record.

I saw no post from any frank such guy. did I plonk him as one of the
posting.google.com screen names?

What would you say were the main plusses and minusses of the boat? What
rout did you take and what season was it? Sounds like a cool trip, and
obviously you survived

The passenger side outside door handle was an optional extra (fact).

had a business issue to handle, which it seems is now done with as of last
week. Not sure if I will continue this spring or wait until fall to continue
south. lots of options.

My uncle had a dealership that sold Scouts. It had the highest amount of QC
problems of any make that he sold. They would show up from the factory with
parts missing on a regular basis. They were horribly put together by the end of
the run.

The body didn't just rust, it disolved. or maybe it was electrolysis.

Exactly. They were rusting when brand new!
