Boatless
 

Bad Idea is going to Mississippi next Saturday. It's been fun & expensive. I did what I wanted to do with it, now it is time to move on to another hobby or something.
Congrats to the new owner & I hope it is as enjoyable or more for him as it was for me.

Congrats on the sale. If you ever want back in I'll trade ya the Powerplay for your Bonanza. :drink:

April fools day is over...............come on.

No joke. Really happening.

congrats jas..
now you can join the rest of us on the thrill of shopping for our next boat and sifting thru crap and over priced boats as we quickly approach Summer!!! :angry-smiley-038:

You were one of the few that I never thought I'd see a thread like this...............but I understand, I've thought about a few times, but couldn't pull the trigger, there's nothing cheap about boating and it's work....................let us know if you're looking for something.


Congrats.

Please tell me you'll keep up the good work with TRL505 commentating the ShootOut again this year. I'd stay home from the races again this year just read the two of you going after the moderator.....

I'll have the time to do so. TRL505 may not be able to participate as he is currently undergoing foreskin regeneration to facilitate his gender reassignment surgery.

What will you do with all that money you're going to save ?;)

Someone better notify your vendors.

Lortabs & whores. Lots of them. Probably kick some coin TRL505's way for his sex change.

Great Jason... As I said on the phone you always got a ride with me, especially if we move North. Congrats man and congrats to the new owner...you got a great lil piece of history there.

Jason Smith.....please don't leave OSO and comment often lol

Wow! TBM goes under and all the die hards go down the crapper.

Rough year.

Wow, I thought TBM died years ago!

Congrats on the sale!

Congrats Jason, someone got one KICK ASS boat, good luck in whatever you decide to do next (-:

Congrats on the sale!

Another hobby? What is better then boating? At least get a cruiser with a stand up jet ski on the swimdeck!

Good luck either way, and keep us updated!

Congrats on the sale. If you make it to Loto ill save ya a spot on the toon, or Richies toon. :)

A good friend of mine bought this boat. I plan on having a lot of fun on it in about two months time! If the boat is half as nice as the pictures I've seen, you did a great job on it Jason.

Did i go with the blowers and intercoolers in place? Thought I'd seen mentioned that you'd sell it with or without the belted air cleaners.

It has one season on it without the belt-driven aircleaners.

Congat's Jason!!! At least now there will be more room at the docks-----LOL
Your friend,
Jay

Thanks Old Man Jay!

Did you remove the 90 mph club stickers too ?;)

what part of mississippi is it going to ? wonder if ill see it at pickwick sometime ....

Biloxi I think.

nowhere near me .... dang

They definitely got a nice boat. I definitely rolled around the idea of your boat several times. Wasn't sure if I'd be happy with the size for what I want to do. Glad I went 36. I'm sure the new owner will be very happy with it.

Bad Idea will be found running the Emerald Coast this summer. Captain Navy Josh maning the sticks. She's headed up to Virginia Beach sometime around November and will be there for a few years.

As has been said, the "good part", from a boat owners perspective, about being a US NAVY Officer is that the new orders are going to lead you to the beach somewhere. In this case it's Virginia.

I thought you handled it well Jason, considering all the blood, sweat and beers (not to mention bank) you have invested in the ole girl over the years. I didn't see you cry, but MAN you were bleeding all over the fuggin place. LMFAO. Cheers Brutha, you know where to get a ride when you "need one."

As the new owner of (not a) Bad Idea, the boat def went to Biloxi and can be found terrorizing fishermen on the Biloxi River, Big Lake, Back Bay and the Mississippi Sound... plenty of trips to the emerald coast are in order this summer. :) Couldnt be happier with the purchase, Jason is a class act. I know its been tough on him, but he still responds to every question and then some. And knowing him he will be tearing the water up soon.

I will be heading to the tidewater area (Virginia Beach) in November as I picked up my comission as a Naval Officer.

Congrats on the boat and the promotion!!

Congrats on the boat and naval upgrade as well!!

I just drug my new boat home this weekend also... maybe will see ya this summer,,, we are hoping to do some more trips to ship island..

Nailit, what did you buy?

I found a deal up in VA on a 98 33ol!! Has 12 hours on new mags. Full galley = tax writoff :lolhit:

Alum trailer, etc.. only thing it doesn't have is hyd steering.. vinyl is firm and feels new still.. colors were the only concerns, but it looks "ALOT" better in person.. check out tread I posted some pics..

Ran great.. walked right up with 25+s under 3k. Was kind of weird b/c it didn't climb out.. stayed level and just came out water..

Jason, congrats on the sale. Last year was my first in almost 20 years without a boat for summer. I didn't miss it at all. Now you need a grandson to keep you busy for a hobby.. :) My grandson is 15 months now and is a blast. Maybe in a few years will think about boating again.

youll have more fun taking the kiddo in to branson to catch a show, ride some gocarts, spending day @ sdc looking at fat women in shorts.

ill see if i cant get you a discount to ride the ducks to get your boat fix. :lolhit:

Thanks guys, promotion is huge for me. Now pay me the money!! :D

Nailit most def, ran to ship last weekend, first time out there as we usually run to horn. Thats a quite a ways out. Had a blast with the poker run. Sent ya my info.

Josh

I saw Bad Idea in Orange Beach, AL on Saturday while eating breakfast at the Cobalt (restaurant). Talked to the owner for a minute. Boat still looked good.

Jason, I missed that you sold Bad Idea, she looked like an awesome boat, sorry I never got to see her in person. Are you boat-less or did you find something else to play with?

If you're looking at other hobbies, stay away from airplanes... if you think boating is bad just wait until your first Annual.
