Huuu-yup. Beginning to like my 20-yr-old boat more and more. At least if
something goes wrong, it's becuase it's worn out (and chances are, I've at
least looked at it before!)

Already replaced the "pull-pull" steering that was installed wrong,
replaced the wrong fuel pump with the correct one, replaced the inadequate
wiring, replaced the fuel-filler hose that was used for sewage...Tell me
again why a new boat is so much more reliable than a used one?

See how much better boat you'd get if you could pry Far Cove from
Lloyd's clutches than a crappy new boat?! His is ALL FIXED PROPERLY!
