How'd the call go Ytmsn?

Aslan I haven't called them yet. I bought an old bass boat to flip so I was busy with that this morning. Then we wanted to get on the water and soak up the last day of the weekend.

In my younger days I frequented establishments with dancing girls in Canada. I'll never forget that you had to stay a distance away, so everyone threw the Loonies at the girls and they would dodge them then scurry around picking them up. I think about it everytime I hear "Loonies".

With one you could likely make enough to install the BB with the sale of filler cushions.

Thanks Katie! I talked to the guy about that one yesterday and it's pretty close to the kind of deal I'm looking for. It has almost everything but not quite. It has 510 hours, a small BB and no swimdeck.

But for the right price I can overlook a few things! The big thing it's missing is the swimdeck. I would have to put an aftermarket deck on if I can't find the source I had at one time for the original.. The 310 horse 454 is a turn off too. My past experience with those motors has been expensive. It's a gas HOG with less horsepower than the 350 I have in my boat now.

If you just happen to be in the area with nothing to do it wouldn't hurt to take a look. I fired at it already but the guy wasn't very interested just yet. Maybe as it gets closer to winter he might listen to another offer!

Do you know where it in Louisville it is located? I agree though, it would be an upgrade for your in boat size, but you are looking at a pretty outdated engine to push it.
