Damn man.... :)


Yeah, so. I have another boat with 600 hours on the engine. I don't use
this boat much, so I'm selling it. It looks damned close to brand new,
and the replacement cost is close to $80,000. You could buy it for less
than my asking price, trade in the Yamaha for an etec, and have a damned
nice fishing boat with an enclosed electric toilet AND other niceties
Mrs. SW would like.

Tom,
On your next trip between home and your son's you need to stop by
Harry's and check out his "other boat". I understand it is a beauty.

By the way, you are being generous with 40 hrs a year. A 2003 is sold
in the summer of 2002, so this is really it's 5th season. That would
make it about 25 hrs a season.

Tom,
If I had to leave a boat unused for long periods of time during the
season, I would fog the engine and stabilize the fuel.

Isn't a boat just as susceptible to rust and corrosion from April till
October as it is during the winter months?

If you use a boat in salt water, then I would agree, but fresh or even
semi-fresh, I wouldn't worry about it. It's like a car that sits for
a while - same concept.

Two stroke? I would consider it if, say, I only used it once or twice
a month for whatever reason.

Perhaps for your overuse of petrol, but not for mine. Boat cruises
wonderfully at 25-30 mph, burning 9-11 gph with a boatload of folks
aboard. She'll run 39+++ mph at WOT, but then you'd be burning close to 20
gph. No thanks.

I didn't think you'd fall for such an obvious troll.

;-)




I didn't; I used it as a sales opportunity. Not that there are more than
three posters here to whom such a boat would be appealing.

Don't just check it out. Make Harry give you a ride in it.

ReggieTroll is back in town. I wonder why he is not on that bubble boat he
claims to own and spends every weekend on.

JimH,
Unlike some of us, I don't post weather reports and screen shots of the
weather in my area, and what my plans are since i am not boating, but
since you asked, it has been pouring down all morning. The forecast is
for isolated thunderstorms through out the day. My wife and I plan on
doing some housework, and getting caught up with stuff we have put off.
I think I will eat lunch and dinner today. We have invited over some
neighbors, my wife is talking about cooking some stuffed flounder for
dinner, and then play cards afterwards. I will make sure to let you
know if I have any change in my plans or if their is an update in our
weather. Thanks for asking.

Reggie Retardo owns a boat like I own a Lear Jet. I've never believed he
was a boat owner. My suspicion is that he is a short little ****, scared
to death of everyone he has to deal with in his life, and that he comes
here "anonymously" to escape from that existence.

Harry,
At 25 hrs a year, you are "almost" boatless, so i can understand why you
wonder if others actually own and use a boat.

If I posted a .wav file of my boat's horn, would you believe I had a boat?
