I just got a kick out of considering that name in this cotext vs. the fishing boat.

I always thought that my projects were a lot sexier than the "other" branch of my family tree, with one exception. Billy Martin's very first offshore raceboat, "The Hustler", back in the late 60's was a Luhrs.

Funny coincidence that Billy Martin describes his current Bounty Hunter as a fishing boat!

I think this is the third time it has been on eBay and stalled at the same price. Either he can't figure out that that is the going price .... or that is where he has instructed his shills to stop bidding.

Did not meet reserve ... again

Mark, I take it you know the boat? I just saw it and thought it would probably trigger some great stories from the old school gurus... Seems like it has. You try to buy it and got a BS story from the owner or something?

If you ask 4 appraisers to assess your house and all 4 give you the same price ... what do you think your house is worth?

I'm saying the seller has an unrealistic opinion of the value of the boat and motor - it ain't a ragtop Hemi 'Cuda

Dude, don't get me started on people paying millions of dollars to own a mass produced production car...
