Gave boat to son in law. I was tired of keeping it clean. I got my moneys worth of fun out of it with kids and grandkids. We can go anytime we want and not have to work on it anymore.

Nice! Hope he gets some good use out of it.


Fired up my boat today on the muffs and got a temp alarm. I’ll be pulling t-stats and putting a new pump in this week more than likely.

Still miss the boats I’ve sold.

That’s what I plan to do someday, here is a boat for you, you only have to take me fishing a few times a month.

Me too! My first boat, a 14’ Sears Gamefisher fiberglass tri-hull, brought great joy to me. The cost of rearing children forced me to sell it. Hardly a fishing season goes by that I don’t miss it.

We liked tubing when we first got our boat, but before long everyone but me had too many aches and pains to endure the ass whoopin you get on the tube. IIRC, the last time I rode it I got bucked off and for some reason I did not turn loose of the handgrip. My shorts ended up down around my ankles in about five milliseconds. How I had the presence of mind and the reflexes to flex my ankles and not lose them, I'll never know but I'm sure glad I didn't have to ride back to the boat ramp bare-assed naked.

Good move, hanco. Very generous.

Just fishing.

LOL.
