Spareparts,

I have not got a hold of him yet but I am still trying. Thanks for all your help and introducing me to the site! I am going to go ahead and get the VRO disconnected, carbs cleaned, and fix my problem. She (the boat) has got a long summer and fall ahead of her so I am going to go ahead and do it right! Plus my fiance gave me that look when she overheard me talking about a new 200 E-Tec! :-X Hopefully I can put another 40# King in the boat in a couple of weeks!

I keep my V in old village behind the Scotchman where Colman Y's off right at Half Moon on Rose Lane. I will take some pictures and post them soon.

I am all about a raft up! :D

Ever done the Santee Locks Cruise?...

I never have but always wanted to ...sounds like a great route for a bunch of V-20s 8) ...

I have never done the locks but I would love to try it.

I have been told it is an awsome trip. I use to have a Scout 172 Sport Fish and it did not have the range for that trip so it was never really an option for me unless took several blatter tanks. It had a old 90 Rude on the back of it that drank gas like I drink Bud Lights! :o

How many V-20's are around Charleston that yall know of? I have not see very many at all. I saw a ton of them in Wilmington NC a month or so ago and quite a few in Morehead last time I was up their.

I was cutting back thru the old village near Mark Gouger's shop yesterday and saw a V beside a carport with a yellow cat sailbote on the other side. BTW Reel, I saw your buddys powercat at Mark's shop yesterday, pretty impresive. As far as V's around here, theres one at City Marina( center), a suspect dually(haven't got that close) over near Hobcaw, seen a v up at Wild Dunes last week, theres the one by the soccer fields that never moves. My buddy,Carrey Davis has his eternal project V in his front yard, saw another at Palmetto Marine this morning. Chris V has a V-21 at his shop(his personal boat). Saw Tally Ho up at P&P in Monks Corner. I see 'em all the time, try tell them about the site, who knows, we might have enough to start our own fleet.

Spare,

I think I am going to visit Chris this week. Do you go on charlestonfishing.com any?

spareparts · #18 07-24-2007, 06:59 PM

used to, got tired of the bs, anytime some one asked a simple question, he would get flamed by 15 a-holes, too many people asking where the "Grillage is, or the Crucifix. I have a better time here ;D

Chris is a good tech, but if you can get Stevie, he's one of the best
