Do you have a satellite internet connection on the Lobsta boat for the posts you made while eating lunch in Tangier? No posts from me, buffalo=breath. You must have been Smithered again. Check the ISP on those posts you think I wrote yesterday. I ain't in Ohio. Harry! I don't doubt you! My gosh, far be it. No, I think it's great that you were able to accomplish all that, without any trailering yet. Wow. How did you fix all those stripers you caught that you don't like to eat?

According to the write up, LGB was lengthened from 108m to 114m by her new owners. I think the OEM didn't put in rod holders and the new owners had to lengthen the boat to install them. :) Thomas Look at the 'dingy' on that thing. I'm sure it's bigger than my Proline. Glad to hear they've made it a worthwhile boat by installing rod holders! I did have a good look at the dinghy, the one at the stern. It looks just like my boat er ah dinghy. I thought I was a boater, now I realize I am just a dinghist, dingher, or closer to a dinghbat. :} Thomas Ditto. I think. Maybe his dinghy is made of papier-mache, just to fool us. -- John H "All decisions are the result of binary thinking." |

There was a special on some TV show yesterday that showed a tour of this thing. It was unreal. Theater, spas. swimming pool, you name it, the boat had it. Five levels with an elevator. It can be leased for $120,000 per *day*, or for a real bargain, $350,000 per week. Maybe I'll take the wife out for a couple weeks cruise in the Med. [Maybe he'll rent the dinghy for only $2500 a day!] http://community.webshots.com/album/76139149USaUwN/2 -- John H "All decisions are the result of binary thinking." |
