MOUNT GAY?!?!? The only thing I bring home from the BVI. MMM MMM!
My bar looks as if it were decorated by that Barbados crowd. Have you tried their mango tinged rum? With a splash of soda its an all-day drink. 'Course you can't walk at day's end, but then who cares.

we'll boys just picked up the replacement power for the tubb. Very hapy with what I brought home. Guessing you'll have to find something else to rag on the tubb, other than speed. Ok, so there's lots of other things to rag about, but speed won't be one of them.
Thanks to the the guy that was able to make the motor deal happen, they are going to a deserving home, and will be much happer in thier soon to be new beds, than the place they used to live.

Neil, if you want to fish marlin, stay away from the downtown boats. Go see Pete Maier on the Melina-he's on the docks behind the Marriot hi-rise. There are a couple others back there that will marlin fish but you need to really push them...

I've fished with Pete several times, the last being 2 years ago-my bud who owned a piece of Sailboard Vacations hooked me up with him years ago. Good luck fishing...

Neil:

I knew Bobby very well -- I fished the Big Rock with him several times -- one of my favorite pictures is of Bobby fishing standup style with a 130 curved butt -- he didn't want to sit in the chair, so he fought a 40lb Mahi standup -- and smiled through the whole thing.

Sad to see someone so young and full of life pass away.

Timmy ,,,first off you be my friend and if friends cant be honest with his friend than who can be. You had a chance to buy that 34 ft Hat you know which one, you took me on it ,older boat, heavy, great platform for cruisein and fishin with newer diesels and it could have been had for less than the cost of the new diesel engines that were already installed .,and you let it go,,,
turning a boat that was designed to be what it is , and it was what it was,,,,into something it aint, and wasnt designed to be,,is reckless and makes you a severe glutton for punishment,,,
I understand the enthusiasm you have for the progect but is it really worth it?
Take the boat get it surveyed and donate it to charity and take the tax deduction from glassmasters,,,if it is legally possible and look for what you really want ,.,go and get that real machine that34 ft hatt because that was a very nice boat for short dollars,,,everybody on this webpage is telling you the market is flat .,boats are being let go for short money nice platforms ,.,"DISTRESS" sales,.,.why start from scratch.,again? it does not make sense to me,,,but i spent 250 to do mine and that doesnt make much sense either so ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,If it makes you Happy , it cant be that bad,,,,,,,cheroll Crow..........................................

Ric-a-hoc,
He's in love with that hull and wants a one of a kind impression, which fits perfectly with his whole personna. Makes perfect sense to me. Especially with your last sentence nailing it, and life...



Up for it?, I think so.

If you want, I can see if I can scare up that picture and get it off to you. The funniest thing was watching Bobby in Walmart -- I think he tried buying the entire store cause everything was so much cheaper than in Aruba.

His boat was a piece of work, wasn't it?

Yeah, I crewed on the Betts -- if you know Norman, you must know Timmy his friend from Buffalo? Tough boat to fish on, the Betts -- making the crew wear pink shirts is just WRONG!
