Mike your an asshole. I drive by that boat on the way to my garage to work on my own boat. I wonder if he will trade for a freshly restored 235 on a trailer? Or maybe i can talk my dad into selling his powerboat for it? Hmmmmmmmmm! _________________ '88 - Wing - Hull #140 |

I'm just not sure this niche in life you speak of can pay for, well, my niche in life. You must remember, though i have paid for all my boating goodies on my own and my truck and a few other toys, I have nothing else and live at home. My parent's still feed me, charge me up with cell phone minutes, provide shelter (in a sort of extravagant way), a boat slip, school tuition, I could go on but i would just continue to make myself look like a mooch. Therefore within the next year or so here i need to finish my degree and go off and get a real job, and a real life. Than i have no doubt my itch for boat maintenance will "flare" up again, with, in no doubt, an even larger vision. _________________ '88 - Wing - Hull #140 |

You've heard of Ebonics? This must be Eboatics.
