oh ya got lazy and ran out of daylight to get pics.... i'll try harder tomorrow....

I hear you... Don;t get me wrong. I love to tinker with my boat. Just remember. You will fix it up and it wont really be worth any more then it is. Crap for boats is a HELL of alot more then a pickup.... You think a diesel truck can get expensive... just wait... I can find you a NICE boat that size up here for a couple grand if you want. Hell... If you find one up here we will set up a DB meet somewhere between us And I can bring it to you.

I never consider money I spend on a vehicle an "investment", I'm not likely to ever get it back. More like "entertainment", only worth it if I derive enjoyment from it.
The two best days of boat ownership are the day you buy it and the day you sell it.
