I expected it to be that he had passed away and family was selling but it was much sader for people who love boating.guy retiring from navy buys boat with tons of options. Only for some reason he doesn't retire and boat just sits as he is out at sea for 9 months at a time. Guess he is pissed to pay on a boat that just sits in his yard. I feel for him and will take great care of her.
That's too bad. Good for you though!

Aj,

Do you boat on lake or Chautauqua? Or are you on Buckeye lake near Columbus?

I see your sig has Chautauqua. We just saw the Bee Gees cover band at Beamus point which sits on Lake Chautauqua. Want to take our Cobalt up there next year. Love it there! Like a slice of Norman Rockwell.

Love lake chq. I was in bemus bay watching the show on July 7th this year. Wish I got up more often. My folks have a place in Chautauqua institution. Tuscany yourself and I have to do a small regatta in the near future. I think the site founder (john aka "The Godfather") is from Rochester so we really could get a good group together. I do most of my boating in Columbus at alum creek but I try to get out of town in the summer often. Was in Norris lake twice this summer and at table rock lake for a week too.

Now you're talkin!

When this 263 is ready to go, let's plan on this.

With how slow things are moving for me getting this boat, it may have to wait until next year. I'll hope for the best though.

Trust me Aj, I have thought about that. Unfortunately, too much going on in August in the military. Can't everyone just get a long in this world!

In any event, we are planning on having it to us by mid August. Let's see how things pan out.

I agree. Mine doesn't have the accent stripe and I covet that look. :mrgreen:

No. I was just checking out Tuscany's route up the Niagara river. That's about an hour 45 from me. We should all dump in and cruise.

5 and 4? right in my wheelhouse my friend. I'll just be getting back from Florida on Labor Day... taking the animals on their first plane ride so that won't work. Let me talk to the wife.
