Our weather is stinking right now, been snowing all morning. Suppose to turn to rain and then warm up in the next few days.

No my boat is not ready unless I want to paddle it around, LOL. I took the motors out about a week and a half ago when it was warm. Then it got cold so I guess I shouldn't have done that. I have two afternoons in scrubbing the bilge. I am going to clean it up some more, fill some holes and paint it up once it warms back up.

The boat is not ready but I am ready for spring.

I remember someone thinking this was a horrible idea to do...

"you can buy mine for about half of what it would cost to get that thing up and running again. 96 pantera 28 single 548"

"you consider that thing "some work"? maybe having to recover a seat or buff some gel or recover some bunks on a trailer in my opinion would be "some work".

"buy my 28 single for half what it would cost to bring that thing back from the dead"

i thought this would be cool to have in the back yard, if you had little kids to play pretend on, instead of a swing set. But if you can 'put your finger through the dashboard', then it even sounds dangerous for that use...

btw, where is MGH? ever since his cover was blown he's been MIA.

I told MGH about a 26 Sonic with a 496HO that was rite about the money he wanted to spend and would be a great first go fast boat . That was the last time we talked . He changed his user name and hasn't loged in under MGH sence the $hit hit the fan . I've still got all the pictures of him I coppied off his face book if you want a good laugh
