My new 51 Outerlimits!
Yeah, I wish.
I pulled into my marina today to find a brand spanking new 51 & fantacized about it being my new boat.
Although totally shrink wrapped, I walked up to the truck driver & said "nice new Outerlimits eh?" He said yes, how did I know. I told him about Wild Child & then came to find out he had lost a wheel bering up on I-95 & he had till 5pm to get it to the port in NJ to be shipped over to Bahran (sp???) right next to Iran.
Well, everyone told him the parts were not available for a day or two & he was out of luck.
Needless to say, I drove him around for 3 hrs collecting all the pieces from different places & had him on the road by 1:30.
The NJ port is only about 1-1/2 hrs away so I assume he made it.
I think the oil barron who is eagerly awaiting his new boat should send me a few hundred g's for my efforts?

That boat was sitting on a really wild MYCO trailer wasent it... Purple if I am not mistaken...
I saw a gooseneck kinda trailer there when I made a stop months back, they said it was for an OL going to baharain.

ISN'T IT TRADITION IN SOME OF THOSE COUNTRIES THAT WHEN SOMEONE COMPLIMENTS SOMETHING YOU OWN YOU GIVE IT TO THEM? IF THAT IS THE CASE LETS TAKE A TRIP TO BAHARAIN!!!!!

Yep, I'll take the virgins, all 72!
Well.........I think I might opt for the good will gesture of him giving me the 51 footer.
Sale price of the boat with all options I hear was 1.4 MILLION!!!!!
