Already knew I had a big nose but now....
I'VE GOT A BEAK!!!
Looks like I'll be putting off "smoking" for a while (Cigarette will be the next boat, I PROMISE Mark!), but for now, I'm joining the ranks of Reggie. Many many many thanks to Raymond's Boat and Motor Sales of Gravois Mills, MO (a Chicago Poker Run sponsor, I might add). Charlene @ Raymonds is possibly the single kindest person I've ever met...and she made me a great deal on both my trade and the new boat. By all means, ladies and gentlemen, before you buy another boat, check this dealership out!
I've just got to send in the final paperwork and get my insurance, then wait a couple weeks to go back down to LOTO and pick her up. We're doing that the second weekend in June...staying for a long one to get some boating done down there.
Here she is:

Re: Already knew I had a big nose but now....
We delt with Charlene a couple years ago when I went down to LOTO and burned up the brakes and a wheel bearing on the trailer. She had her guys fix the trailer and she called us while on the road home to make sure everything was all right and that we made it home ok.
This was just a trailer and she was concerned that we were ok.
Hard to find people like that in the marine business.
