Tom? Well I'm not sure about going fishing with him or not after he

throwing an Article 15 at him.

Nah......

I wouldn't worry about Tom. Make sure you take JustWait along to keep the
big guy in line if he acts up. ;-)

Who the heck you bringing into this. We would both end up swimming.
Here how it would probably go. SW would wait till one of us noobies
got near the transom. A little tap of the ETec and we are both
swimming.. SW would light a imported cigar and snicker a bit, check
his wiring and wait till we were about half way to shore. Then he
would press the red button and the ARMS system would pop out of the
hardtop and blow our asses out of the water.. If we swam too fast or
he was too lazy to hit the red button, the SAT system would pick us
off soon thereafter. You just don't get it man.

There you go. you know him best and therefore are the best bet to uncover
his weak points.
I'll back you up from up here. ;-)

Hey, speaking of superior technology, can you rebuild a Super A
starter so I can keep the original starter case?- Hide quoted text -

Sure can. In fact. If you want, I'll ship you a whole starter, so you
can keep your origional.

While I appreciate the offer, I'd prefer to have the original rebuilt.

I'll send you an email.- Hide quoted text -

Tom, I was saying you could have one to use, and keep the origional
with the other stuff that goes with it. But yes, yours can be redone,
and probably really in expensively. they usually dont' burn out. I'd
be happy to look at it.

Sounds like a plan. I'm not in a rush as it's being repainted by the
local restorer - I just need to fix the starter.

I'll drop you a line - I appreciate it very much.

I know I'll get it back in better than new shape.

Ok, except for the choice of motors and the LT.

I can take it easy on the paint job too, but the thing to do is to
work on it BEFORE it gets painted. then nothing gets scruffed up.

What Scotty doesn't realise is that special treatment is only for him
- I like him and am willing to give him some kind of chance to
survive.

Others I just eliminate quickly. :)

Yeah - I just saw the post - most excellent. Sounds like it's going
to work out fine. Key West is a good boat - a little light for my
taste, but otherwise, good boats.

Almost hate to get it dirty fishing. Maybe just use fake bait.
Catch a
bunch of fake fish. Go to Safeway and get some catfish. Mrs H
will never
know the difference.
I know somebody who does exactly that. :)
Well, I wanted something easy to launch, retrieve, and tow. This thing
seems to fit the bill.

Appreciate all the advice along the way.
No LT, right?

No, that's one of the features sorely lacking on this boat.

The Key West is a great boat. It's on my short list for my next boat.

If you like the idea of converting a Key West to a LT-KW, you can always
buy a cheap chain saw for less than a $100. ;)

A reciprocating saw is far more refined.

The 2300.

Polar is another consideration...

I want something I can still tow.

I'll tell you what - pound-for-pound, dollar-for-dollar, the Polar is
the best boat I've seen in that class next to Contender.

Everything about Polar boats is well thought out and properly
constructed. They also have features that other boats just don't have
or are interested in for whatever reason. They are the equal of
Contender in a lot of ways.

If I were interested in that class boat, I'd have to flip a coin
between a Contender and Polar which is saying something because I'm a
huge Contender fan/fanatic.
