EXCELLENT!!!! Congrats!! Do you have a link to the ad or anything?

OldSchool 08-11-2003 08:45 AM

There was no ad. I'm going in to work to get the disk with the pictures on it. Thank you to everyone for their congrats and well wishes. I'd like to also thank my good buddy Hugh Pollock for going along on a 600 mile, one day trip and his advice throughout this whole process. We certainly had a good time:cool: :cool:
Also, thanks are in order to the current owners of the boat Dooley and Connie Hart for taking such good care of it. After the deal was done, Dooley's friend Jeff gave me a Cigarette shirt right off of his back:D :D :D

I'm still a Formula owner too!! The boat has 454 mags in it with 500 hours. One of the engines developed a problem last weekend(it needs a head due to corrosion). I was hoping to get a season or two out of them and then build some power. The previous owner called me to ask me what I wanted him to do about it (gotta love honesty):) and we have decided that he does nothing, we renegotiated the price. He could have fixed the problem and sold me the boat without me knowing:eek:

My wife and I have decided to build two engines and put exhaust on it now.:D :D Both drives have been rebuilt with a xr upgrade within the last year.

I just ordered a new trailer from Nextrail (12,500 lb. trip axle) Thanks to Gary @ Nextrail- a real class act!!!

wwwTOPDJcom 08-11-2003 12:20 PM

can I ask what price range this boat fell into
IlL understand if you do not want to disclose
Also wondering how much bullet insurance is :D

Primal Instinct 08-11-2003 01:03 PM

Boat looks great, congrats and welcome to the Cig party!

OldSchool 08-11-2003 01:31 PM

Brian,
Call me and I'll tell you what I paid for it. It needs some very minor cosmetic work (yea, I'm anal:D ) that I was thinking maybe Fred (too old) might want to do:D :D this winter.

craig,

Does the Bullet have everything required to write the interest off as a second mortgage?

A "place to sleep", a "place to go to the bathrom", and a "place to prepare food"?

Thanks! :cool:

45sonic 08-11-2003 02:59 PM

Hey Craig,

Congrats on the new ride. If you want me to go get it for you let me know. Be more than willing to move it for you.
Hope all is well and look forward to seeing you again

Hi Clay,

As far as I'm concerned it does:D :D It has an enclosed head, bed and counter space.
