Part of the application process is a sea trial to evaluate boat piloting skills. That way they can drive, I can look.

[randlemanboater]

looks good ;D how much work does she need?

Hopefully just cleaning her up, swapping motors and getting some electronics.

[phatdaddy]

congrats, now you don't have to worry about having too much time or money, you'll always have a place to spend them both.

I have three kids, I have no spare time or money.

[msbhammer]

Damm, where are my reading glasses at. I cant see $hit.
Is that a V or a Bayliner. ;D ;D ;D ;D
Congrads. ;D

[Mulv80]

Is that an R/C Boat. How many batteries does it take and how long did it take to build ;D

[randlemanboater]

Skool's has fixed em for me, I'm just not at home where I can put up the larger pics. ::)

[msbhammer]

Mulv, your right, thats the boat in the video. Whers the remote control, its my turn to play with it now. *;D

[reelapeelin]

randleman...are you even gonna run it w/ the Merc on it?...or swap 'em out 1st?... ??? ...

[randlemanboater]

I'm gonna run the Merc before I pay for it, then switch em out.

[Blue_Runner]

Nice boat RB - what I can see of it! I've been a little absent lately. Started new job duties on Monday. You guys might not be seeing as much of the ol Blue Runner as you have been. :(

I got some good pics of the boat and this little secret project I've been working. on. ;) Will post up.

So, RB where ya gonna do your splashdown?

[msbhammer]

Damm Blue, been wondering what happened to ya. Figured you finally came out of the closet and went Bayliner on us. ;D ;D ;D ;D

So whats the scoop on this secret project. We want Pics. ;D

[Gator_Bait]

Congrats on the purchase! I'm new here but was also watching that auction but the seller never replied to my questions so I was reluctant to bid with no communication.
Looks good though...good luck with her! Hopefully I can find a similar deal in the coming months!

Great site by the way! 8)

[msbhammer]

I hate it when work gets in the way of leisure activities.

I will be trying her out in the IWC there at Ocean Isle on Friday. If its not to rough I'll run her through the inlet a couple times.

[randlemanboater]

I think this would look good in her.http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/POMPANETTE-International-Teak-Helm-Seat-Boat-Chair_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ119142QQhashZitem 130077063759QQihZ003QQitemZ130077063759QQrdZ1

[randlemanboater]

Seriously I am thinking about one of these to sit on the splashwell.http://www.outdoorsuperstore.com/product.asp?prod=262804

Mount it on hinges so you can fold it forward when the engine has to be trimed all the way up.

[Mulv80]

Randleman - remember don't keep receipts for boat stuff and if she asks when or where you got something just say "Oh that, I had that" or "It came with the boat".

[randlemanboater]

I am very well versed in the tactic. ;D

I was planning on stopping 2 or 3 places and filling up the boat on the way home.

[Blue_Runner]

Very good RB - run her wide open into some steep 6 footers and let us know how it goes ;D

So whats the scoop on this secret project. We want Pics.
I knew I could get you going Hammer ol buddy....not to burst the bubble, but the secret project is not boat related :-/

But that's ok, pictures are pictures! And I do have some snowy pics of the boat. Now, to post em. Gotta get a 20 on that cam and usb cable. Now where'd I put that son of a ******?

Nice boat RB! Hope she does well.

[msbhammer]

Yo Blue, its been 5 hours so far, you find that usb cable yet. >:( ;D ;D

[macojoe]

My secret project has to wait for Spring :'(

[msbhammer]

I'm to broke, so I gotta wait too. :-[

[randlemanboater]

Now you can see the pics. Thanks Skools!

[msbhammer]

Well...ok......for now. But Come Friday.. >:( >:( >:(

[randlemanboater]

Even if the perfect storm comes, I'm going to get her.

You get down to that area often REEL?

My parents, the ones on Lake Cooley, have a place at Holden Beach. Often we ride the boat the the Giggling Mackerel for dinner. But only early in the week and early in the evening, otherwise it takes 3 hrs.

My uncle lives at OI also.

[macojoe]

I have no problem with the money, its the dam cold!! 19*right now with a good stiff blow at 15 to 20, NE coming tonight, going to be rain snow ice slush, all sucky stuff!!

[msbhammer]

Did M.J. just type Stiff and blow. Honey, dont read these posting. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
