Default When did Skippy's "Flying Pig" go on the hard?


Wasn't it sometime in October that Skippy got hauled to do a simple
bottom job?

LOL! That means it's close to a year and he's STILL on the hard. Good
Grief!

Let's look at the cost of the lay days alone.

365 days at 15 dollars a day = $5,475

365 days at a 50 dollar a day materials cost = $18,250

365 days figuring ten bucks per hour labor cost = $3,650

Skippy probably pays for metered electricity at about $25 per month =
$300

Travel lift in and out = $250

Ben Gay and other meds for the old aching back = $100

Let's assume water is no charge.

So the approximate bill to date for Flying Pig, an old Morgan that MIGHT
fetch about 30 grand these days, amounts to 28,025 bucks. WOW! Talk
about throwing good money after bad!!!

Doesn't this beat all?
