hey guys, how goes it? well, time to put my V up for sale. just pulled the drive and it needs an intermediary housing and i'm just dam tired of working on it.
that and i'm working 7 days a week to try and pay down my debt. will look for something a bit smaller for next season but for now i need to sell my beautiful V.
i will sell in any number of configurations.
i have a custom aluminum bracket that needs a good cleaning and powdercoat. the motor runs like a scalded dog so will sell that off as well.
will sell the hardtop and enclosure.
take the whole shebang or pick and choose.
i dont know if i'll let the top go before the boat.
i also just got a letter from my city saying i'm in violation of city ordinance and must get it out of there.
i have no trailer. spread the word. boat is still in great shape.

That sucks bro! If you were closer I'd be interested in a few things.

How much for the Hammer action figure on a plate of jello?

The Green Jello is mine. : )
Thats sucks brother Charlie. Hate to see you sell her. She is a dream machine. Whats the cost to fix her. ??

yes gents, it sucks indeed. the worst part is the boat is still in great shape. the cost isnt really the issue. its the work involved. working as much as i have been, i literally dont spend 10 hours a week with my kids. i havent taken a day off since christmas. i dont forsee any end to this cycle. i probably wont take another day off until the fall. as for the mini hammer in jello, we were forced to ingest it. we are that deep in debt. thanks for the kind words guys. this too, shall pass.
just doesnt seem right now like it will.

Good to hear from you Charlie. Best of luck on the sale. I know you hate to see her go. She'll make a nice boat for someone.

P.S. Don't work too hard. Its a rat-race and you know what the fastest rat gets? Nuttin.

thanks willy. i appreciate the thought because i know you meant it. dont be surprised if i do indeed show up one day.
blue, yeah, somebody is gonna get a hell of a boat. and i figure as soon as i pay down some of this sh!t i'll pick up something a bit smaller and be able to show my face around here again.
unfortunately we ran into a HUGE financial pitfall and its gonna take some to get our heads above water again. i even have to sell my jets season tickets. now that hurts. this will be my first summer ever without a boat.
EVER!!!

hey maco, you still kickin? when you do at some point decide to charge everybody on the sight (you cheap bastard) i'll expect to be grandfathered in.
just put it on my tab.

talk to you guys soon.
