You guys haven't seen anything yet !!Wait till the Saudis figure out we threw Mubarak in Egypt under the bus and are going to do the same thing to Kadify in in Libya ... How long before they suspect the same for them ? That's the trouble with backing these countries over there and if the Saudis go down ,Who is going to supply us with oil like they did when everyone else could not or would not...... As the old witch told Caesar "beware of the Ides of March " Hold on to your backsides guys.

I'm actually happy about the gas prices, because I am shopping for my next boat. Gas prices caused the loan defaults for people that we tapped out (50 percent of the old performance crowd), which caused the banks to get tight, which caused the prices of boats to go in the $hitter! Buyers market, the 60-70% I am saving on my next boat will never be overcome by the gas prices :drink::drink:

BTW, with food, drinks, cleaning, winterizing, towing, insurance, dock fees, repairs and all the other things that go along with boating the fuel is still such a small small expense, unless you are WFO all day every day the $300 in weekend gas should be the least of anyones worries.

The cheapest part of boating is the gas !!!!!!!!!! This just means we might have to start taking our empties back :drink: :drink: :boat:
