Default New Boat TV Show

I think they stole my idea ...

Flipping Ships / Animal Planet / 9pm Fridays
They take junk boats out of the weeds and return them to the water.

I just finished one. Maybe they will hire me??

I think it's the equivalent of "fat and furious" imo I don't see it taking off because it doesn't seem like it has the hot rod theme like other car shows. At least that's what I got with the previews on TV I've seen. None the less something new on TV to watch!

Smoke a ton of weed and the show becomes good.

Did you pick the neighborhood or did it pick you?
Before we moved here we knew what kind of hood it is. Pretty much respect your neighbors and they will leave you be. Did have a small issue last year with the county. I guess they were driving through when I was painting the bottom of the Donzi (best I can figure). Tried coming off as real hard asses telling me what I could and what I couldn't do and the fines that were going to follow. They should never mess with someone with a internet connection. Finally get ahold of her by phone 2 weeks after my written notice. After quoting her EPA reg's about how I am considered a hobbyist (you can spray 2 vehicles per year without any special equipment). And according to DNR I can have as many boats as I want (as long as they are registered to me) and I can do anything I want to them on my own property. Not to mention that 2 of them are ACBS show winners and a 3rd came in second place last year, all I got was "sorry we bothered you and will send you notice that the case has been closed". 2 days later the letter was in my mailbox and I have not herd from them since.

But enough of that....
Thanks everyone for the comments on the project. The Donzi was fun to do but I don't have a use for it so it will be going up for sale in the next couple weeks. Got to cut back on the fleet some being I want to seriously get into running the race boat for a while now that I have new motors for it. Wasn't even going to do another boat but someone traded the Donzi to me (along with some cash) for another boat so it had to be done like the others because that's they way I do all of them.
Here is a couple more if you all are bored.
