I don't think you could have drove a needle up my ass with a 16# sledge hammer.

I found a set of 28 maximus 1/4 inch cut down and defuser cut off. I just hate buying something and not knowing if it will work. What do you think?

Your boat/deal. Personally, if you don't like the hull. I'd buy something else and switch everything over.

The first offer is usually the best one. The value on your 32 is going to tank fast here in the next couple of years. There is a nice 36 apache for $46K that needs engine work. If you just like projects then that would leave plenty left over to play with and you won't be out of pocket anymore $$$. I'd love to help out with your next project, if there is one.

Are you going to the poker run on Texoma next weekend (8/1)?

I think it's a pretty good offer considering the crunch we are in now. I would most likely get another during the winter at a low ball price. You can buy alot of boat for 95K now days. and you are right it's going to keep depreciating. I may take the offer while I have one.

Hey VV,
Didn't you just put close to that 95K into the boat?
Is the "project" part of the hobbie that you like?
You sure have not used her much.
All this said, I'd sell it for 95K knowing that she'll be worth a lot less in a year or two...
