Personally, I like Sun Buns better than Prop Stop. Still, I don't want to see it go under. As I said earlier though, while overhead isn't bad right now because they have been grandfathered in on so many things, if someone else bought it, it would take a substantial sum of money to bring it into compliance in many areas (ADA, sewer, water, safety, insurance). The place needs a LOT of work. The recurring monthly costs would also be through the roof. Remember, no power out there so they have to haul diesel out there for the genny each weekend - a LOT of diesel. Everything has to be brought out and back via boat (liquor, beer, ice, cups, food etc) and all garbage has to be brought back in by boat. Add to that the business is EXTREMELY seasonal and you would only be working weekends when everyone else is enjoying their boats. And with a bar, if you aren't there personally to oversee things, you will get robbed blind. It would seem like a great opportunity on the surface but I would bet the headaches and liability would far outweigh the money. Just my .02 |

Redline, I haven't met you personally but your story sounds very close to a good friend of mine's. If this first one ever goes bad for me, I don't think I'm gonna dive back into that end of the pool!:party-smiley-004:
Doug, we only want Charlie involved in limited property ownership down here. With the way he gets pissed off, he would ban everyone from the place and then we'd have nowhere to go!!!:drink: Personally, I like Sun Buns better than Prop Stop.

I asked around the river yesterday and the river is open. We are planning on running Satuday around noon-1 oclock. Don't know where we are going, maybe to gators den and back to warsaw. I seen the gators den doors open and alot of cars there wendsday.
Yea your right about the fox in the chicken coup croozin. It would be hard to make any profit and my liver would take a beating. Hope to see you tonight at lizzies. Your also right about the food at lizzies. Never figured that one out. Charlie!!?? One or two parties a year is enough. We would all be banned in short order if something was open all the time. I will give your compliments to Damon on sun buns. He would appreciate it. Oh yeah, Damon is now a bail bondsman!!!. Hell we can get drunk and have someone to call now. He has some cards, I will have to get some for the "at risk" crowd. Will not have the laptop this weekend, no sevice at river, but if anyone see's us, give us a shout. We will be on the river. Black Baja "Farfrompuken". Ya'll be cool. |
Well said Croozin. Running the Prop Stop may sound like a good idea but once you think about it it seems that it would be a huge headache. I'm gonna try to get to the river Sunday and check out my boat stall at Charlie's since a tree fell on it during Gustav :eek: Luckily I brought my boat to my house before the storm.

Got back from the river tonight and thought that I would pass on that Tin Lizzies will be open Friday and Saturday night this weekend. They are having a party for Labor day a little late. Storms screwed everything up. Alot of crap floating in river satuday. Actually saw 5-6 full trees floating in river and in the lake. Lake slick as glass that afternoon. Made a run to Gators den and hung out there. Water dropped about 3 inches over weekend.
Great weather. We will be there next weekend so ya'll come on and lets do some riding. Croozin, you missed a good one. We (4 of us) made it out of there around 3. Bill and Patty came by for awhile. Anyone planning on doing something special for halloween? |
Saturday, Oct 4th, Tin Lizzy's will open the bar at 6 PM, Live Music by Wasted Days 9PM-1AM. The restaurant will not be open. MVA

Ran to Madisonville yesterday for lunch, everything was normal over there. Perfect day on the water.
