Trailer?
I'll help you put it on the roof of your car. I bet you will.... a Lightning weighs 700 pounds Mys Terry wrote: Thanks, but I'd really need a trailer for it, since I'd be dry sailing it. What I'm really hoping to find is a restorable wooden FD like I had when I was a teenager. I just missed one a few months back. I drive past two FDs... on trailers... almost every day. Sad boats left in the weeds of a side yard, would need total restoration. Hey Bobsprit, if you're not lying about the Lightnings, you can give us the hull #s, right? DSK |

An old boat will probably tip the scales at 730 or more. Hey Bobsprit, if you're not lying about the Lightnings, you can give us the hull #s, right? And manufacturer? Max |

Sure. Mine weighed 715 when I bought it, 702 after working it over (I wanted to allow for some scale error because I promised her she'd never ever have to wear lead bricks). But you know Bubble's Lightning would be class-certified at the razor's edge of minimum weight. Hey Bobsprit, if you're not lying about the Lightnings, you can give us the hull #s, right? And manufacturer? That's a little harder to find. Ask him about corrector weights, too. But you can't possible miss the number, even an half-blind schlamozzle like Boobsie would see it *if* he'd ever so much as set foot in a Lightning. DSK |

Why doesn't your "client" have a picture of his boat? Surely he can afford a camera? Or doesn't he have any friends who might take a picture of his boat? DSK |

Well, I wasn't impressed. I asked him why he needed a boat like that for and he told me so he could get there fast. I asked him why he just didn't get an airplane. One week later, he sold the boat. I had to right a check for the one year tag/tax on the boat and the check was $4,500.00. Such a waste of money! Why doesn't your "client" have a picture of his boat? Surely he can afford a camera? Or doesn't he have any friends who might take a picture of his boat? Why would I want a picture of his boat, Doug? I saw it with my own eyes. I would think he could buy a camera, since he made $1.55 million off of just Sprint wireless last year. Now that he's sold the powerboat, maybe I can find him a really nice sailboat! LP |
