Why couldn't that have happened on the last day of the season LAST year, not opening day this year! As I had said in another thread, the gas prices are all relative, we pay wayyy to much for alcohol, we actually pay for water in bottles when we grew up drinking from a hose. there are so many different ways to look at it that it could drive a guy nuts, So I just have fun..And one day I'll be rich like Norty

Hey I don't disagree with you there...gas prices are not that bad when indexed for inflation or compared to prices in Europe. But that doesn't change the fact that it will be easy to burn $300+ in gas per weekend this season. If you can afford it, more power to you to rich guys Four weekends a month and all of the sudden you're talking about "real money." I'm just a working stiff with a boating problem. The blowboaters will be really pleased with themselves this summer.

Because I didn't buy the boat until December!!!! Compression was fine then but I expected rebuilds this coming winter. For the last 4 years I've always had 2 boats...now that I'm down to just one it leaves me stranded. Hope to be on the water in 4-5 weeks.

I wanna be just like offshore. I'll sell my 311 when it's time to get a TG. Maybe next year.

There ya go! I have mine siting there in the driveway, my painter is going by to fix a couple of the spots that the lovely bay debris leaves on them and then I'll start the ad. I'm looking forward to getting out there this year, been too busy to get either of them out. soon though soon. i'm keeping the Tiger on the South river. My daughter is real excited as she is the only kidl in her class to drive a 42 foot boat.

Chuck, what kind of fun car did you get?

I bought a Porsche 968 convertible. I've had a number of Porsches over the past couple of years. Last one was a 1969 911E, fun car but it wasn't a modern car. I looked at Boxsters, but I don't fit in those. The 911 I wanted was just too expensive. So this one will do nicely and Amy likes to drive it. Even gets 25 mpg if you have a light foot.
