Mini Hawk vs. 47 Apache
 
just out of curiosity, which one will give me better manuverability around the docks with my head turned at a 37 degree angle and the stereo turned to 3.. I will have 3 bumpers hanging off the port side to make the boat lean so I should be able to turn to the port easier if I use stabilizing bars correct...Oh and it will have 3.5 gallons of fuel, because it's all I can afford....:D

oh and it will be powered by a crash box with two male ends given to me by a transgendered midget named Rachel and her ex-football playing boyfriend who cast it from stolen molds bought by someone who said he owns the rights while wearing a rolmex...did I miss anything? :evilb:

Yes you did. If you paint it with mettalic in the paint, the magnetic pull from the metal particles in the paint will make the boat more manueverable when docking due north.

I dont want to hi-jack your thread but, you should look at the 42 Foundtane that is for sale in the clasifies,,, it is bigger with the beak and is a great ocean racer and the price is just a little high maybe 40% above market ,, but,, He really needs to sell it bad,,, the engines are under 600hrs ,,, could be a better deal!!!! :evilb: :D :drink:

please sir.... this is ONLY correct in southern latitudes! Do we have to go back to school on this one boys and girls?

Except of course during a leap year when the moon is in alignment and you are working with 6 deg. of seperation.

True but it has 6's and they are too expensive, I figure I can use bravo's or alphas for a third the cost and fix them every couple weeks :evilb: That will save me money right?:D

Are the props on the Mini-hawk spinnin' in or out........could be a slight difference in handling............provided it's lubed with Mobil-1 and not Royal Purple............and when you pull it out of the water remember your straps.......and get an F-650 so you don't have too little tow vehicle..... :rolleyes:

two left handed drives of course, hoy crap batman, I cant believe we forgot to add if it has steps or not:evilb:...I think maybe it will have steps on the starboard side, that will reduce the coefficent drag of both left hand spinning props...anyone have an F-650 I can borrow, I dont want to put miles on my dually :evilb:

How the hell did I miss this thread yesterday???

If you're going to trailer, this would be good for the mini-hawk, and the Apache. But with the Apache only if you are just going a few miles to the ramp.
Already has a hitch :D

IF you get the Mini Hawk and IF you insure it and IF it gets stolen be sure and tell us that it got recovered and you will tell us the story sometime in the next tens years or so.

Whew, gotta love run on sentences. :D
