You can get painted to match your gel-coat. You can get it painted to match your arm candy's bathing suit. You can get it painted to match... There really isn't anything special about it other than you can get it painted to match anything you want and you could hang 4 of the off the ass end of some boat and have a $300K of motors on a $150K boat. There is a guy in the UK who has a 90 MPH inflatable boat with eight 250 hp outboards. Cross Channel smuggling is what he does. You can make a good living on cigs and booze and not risk the heavy time for drugs and guns. They are busting retired people on the Eastern Shore of Virginia for smuggling cigarettes. Good. They are just trying to supplement their meager social security checks. ----------------------------------------- Be interesting if the people set up a sting operation. Buy a bunch of booze and tobacco, move it to a different car and when the ATF pulls you over, refuse a search and then file a lawsuit if they search the car, even with a warrant. Go for it. Let us know how it turns out. |
