5 years ought to be just about right! Boat is at the paint shop still, Jo is going to go look at it tomorrow and I hope to have an update for you at that time. My surveyor is going to go out when the paint is done to get some more pictures for the photo album.

I am starting to get that excited feeling lie Garth described in Waynes World!

Hey Von Bongo, just make sure you have the blower rebuilt and the motor freshened before ya sell her to me! Oh, and load the cooler with "boat soda" as well, would you? Thanks!

Dock I am so easy on boats it won't need to be freshend plus it's a 2003 model so it will only be 4 years old in 5 years so your getting a heck of a deal just due to that!

J I should know a lot more this week, paint was suppose to be done this week, Jo is going out tomorrow to look at it according to Linda and Linda also said that the motor is suppose to arrive this week! They were working on the red as I understand it. I looked at the Cig at Raymonds in the ozarks and the used 2 reds and some gray fades to make the ribbon on that boat. Looking forward to getting Pete out there to get some more pics, it's not like having the boat, but at least I get to see it from time to time!!!



Hoping we will get to set a devliery date sometime soon, then I can pay off on the delivery and speed guesses, well hve to get some motor time before we will get the speed dialed in, but you know what I mean
