I look for a renewed interest in small, less expensive boats. Every
manufacturer in the industry has geared up to build $500,000, 34-foot
express cruisers......but sometimes I suspect they are all chasing the
same couple of hundred prospective buyers.

I agree with you.

Renewed interest in small, less expensive boats will result in small, more
expensive boats.


ROTFL!!!

Goodp point.

Dude - you close on the Navigator?


Buyer is still waiting for the oil sample report.
I figured after our pleasure-filled January boat ride, he changed his mind
on the way home and bought a RV instead.


LOL!

Jeeze - I would figure with all the rush from the brokers, you'd have
that by now.

Me too. We had the oil analysis report back in 3 days when we bought the
GB. The samples were not sent to the lab until Monday or Tuesday of last
week, so I guess that's not unusual.

Right now I've been busy rebuilding and refurbishing a Rock-Ola juke box.
Don't even bother asking why. They *are* amazing though .... 360 watt RMS
stereo amp and connections for everything under the sun.

Cool - always wanted one of those.

Hard to do?

Not what I am doing. We bought it in Florida when we had the house down
there. It is a used, commercial unit that was taken out of service and
refurbished. (It plays CD's .... not records).

When it was moved back up here it got sorta banged around and nothing
worked. I've been slowly going through it, learning about it as I go. The
mechanical mechanisms are pretty cool, but the electronics in them are wild.
It has a computer that memorizes every song on every track of the loaded
CD's. It holds about 100 I think. Big ass amp, surround sound hookups,
paging, even high voltage (70 volt) speaker hookups for use in a store or
mall.

I told Mrs.E that when it finally dies for good, I am going to strip it of
all the amps, speakers, etc. It's an electronic junk lover's delight.

Neat stuff.

I almost bought a replica a few years ago, but backed out - can't
remember why.

Since, I've seen a few here and there. Didn't know the details - now
I do.

Hmmm - have to look around for one. It would go great in my office.

I looked at buying one a few years ago, for the family room. Wife decided
it did not go with the room design. Oh, well I have 1/2 the garage and the
boat.
