going going gone
 

Well I parted with my SEARAY today. My buddy came through and bought it for $6800 today. I didn't make a killin, HE!! I didn't really make much. But it's GONE! And with this boat market right now I'm glad. Although the old girl didn't run half bad with a new prop. Run's around 20 @ 2900 RPM's burnin 9-10GPH.

These big APOLLO large diameter props push some SERIOUS water down low in the R's. But check for clearance, it's TIGHT!

Re: going going gone

Re: going going gone
 

Congrats Ferm, where are you taking me drinking, I figure you will need less than a third of that ;)

Re: going going gone
 

Anywhere you like, just send me the bill and I'll get the check out to you the second TUESDAY of next week. ;D

Re: going going gone
 

If you would give a hamburger today I will gladly pay you next week ;D
Where do you live ?

Re: going going gone
 

Wait a minute... You sold your boat AND got a care package containing beer in the mail all in one day? I call that FermaKarma!

Re: going going gone
 

Exactly Tuna, I waanted him to share a little Karma, but he is being a little stingy. ;D

Re: going going gone
 

It was somethin today. Wish I could have got more though, but some profit is better than none. The market is to shaky right now for me in the 25'+ class.

Re: going going gone
 

I gotta pay for my flats boat somehow.

Re: going going gone
 

Just kidding man, congrats. That Pro line flatty is sweet

Re: going going gone
 

I'm hoping to get an engine for it soon. I've got a 1980 150 here at the house, but I found out it is only a 2.0L not a 2.4L like I origanally thought. Plus the remote mount pump is a pain. I don't get a good feeling from the engine that is on it when I turn it over by hand. Main bearings are supposed to squeak, right? :o

Congrads on the sale Therm. Feel free to send me some of that Green my way. ;D

Re: going going gone

Re: going going gone

Re: going going gone
 

Congrats on the sale!! Hurry up and buy before the wife gets the money! ;)

Re: going going gone
 

Thank god I'm not married yet, although she has already tried to coerse some of it. I found a nice 150HP MERC EFI I think will go good on my PROLINE though ;D.

Nice going Ferm, but you should have taken the money pic on the hood of the pink Jeep. :-/
