Read again, I said the WIFEY isn't ready. If it were solely up to me, there'd already be a cruiser tied up someplace.

One of the best days of the summer!!! Who said Bobo cant fly???:drink::drink:

will do.

I have an oppurtunity to introduce these kids to boating- all the good fun and good things kids learn in that environment.

It took about 5 minutes to make them nutz for snowmobiling!

For now the boating focus will be on the older two, the 9yo girl and 7yo boy.
With a nanny in place, the 4 year old boy (who's a bit of a handful at this time with the appropriate for his age short attention span) and the 20 month old girl will most likely not be there, at the outset anyway...

So after many, many summers of spoiling myself with flash, dash, women and at times a solid buzz...
...maybe the species has progressed a little, or at least I think I have- as the idea of these kids loving the life and all the sensations and smiles that go with it- feels as though it may give boating a whole new spark for me.

bottom line is that it's a larger idea for me, it's about boating and the sights and sounds of the water, not necessarily perf boating -'ya know what I mean?

Potentially it's a win-win for me and these kids, not to mention mom's rewards in participating and watching it all happen.
Stacey is a sweet young woman who marches on through days that would leave other women rolling on the floor in tears. Impressive

We'll see. nothing's chiseled in stone, I'm not selling the 353 anytime in the foreseeable future,
and I'm not getting married...
I have a GF with 4 kids and I'm taking great pleasure in doing what I can for all of them.
just experimenting, seeking out positive experiences, and trying to give something back.

Every once in a while I tell her the Drew Hastings bit about all his friends commenting on how great it must be having a GF 20 years younger than he is and his reply...
"not so much... I'm just putting up with all the same sh*t I put up with 20 years ago!"

keeps her on her toes!
though with a career and 4 kids there's little energy to spare for BS
Thankfully!

Any one get there boat wet yet other than with a hose?

11 days and counting!! Hoping to be in the Wednesday before Memorial Day weekend.

Still in pieces...

Jeff and I are hooked up under cover in the boat house for Sat and Sun night....Get rested up Dave!!!:drink:

Still in pieces too....And need to do lots of cleaning to hang with the A-Bay big boys!!!

AWESOME!! Text me what I need to buy to mix up a few batches of those Jackie Chans and I'll make sure the local store is OUT OF STOCK...:eek: That way we will be safe from his wrath.

Off to the garage to spend an all nighter with the boat, getting things back together...Gotta a reason to finish now! Thanks for the motivation! :evilb:

Dave

Let me talk to my transporter Andy....he has the recipe from our favorite bar tender Cool Man Luke!!!He loves to hook us up when he is my Designated Transporter!! Jeff experienced his sober driving skills last time we partied...
I can hear that dock talking back to me now!!

May the force be with you Luke :drink:

Back to the garage:evilb:

You mean to tell me that I may miss your next feeding of the fishes!

The Biotch is lookin' good and ready to fire up, however I do have one propshaft that is about ready to exit the case and that might just put a damper on things. :eek:

Let me tell you Pete!! The fish can be your friend late at night when you have no one to talk to...

And I think I would rather talk to the fish than say see you later to a prop shaft....:drink::drink:
