My POS ford exploder smelled the money I got for the boat yesterday and decided it needs a fuel pump and left me stranded. Check this box to be notified of replies to this topic.

Thanks SATX, Would be a lot of fun to get all the folks and their boats together for a weekend....

Jim, I have a lead on a dorsett catalina, sight unseen that might be had for a song and a dance, the owner passed and it is now in his widow's possession about an hour north of here that might be had for a song and a dance.... Might be able to work something out and you could keep her here as long as it takes to make it this way, If I can get her for free it's yours for free. When I go pick up the thunderhawk in a week or two, I will follow up on it and let you know what I can find out on it.

Thanks John, It's not that big of a deal on the exploder. Just thought it was kinda funny that it always decides to break down when I get some extra toy money lol. Last time,it was the tranny. Had that rebuilt so now I about HAVE to keep it patched up to drive some money out of it. When I get to a point that I feel satisfaction on it, I'm gonna let it slide

I still have my trusty ole '65 f100

That's mighty good of Joe to offer,so I'm leaving my options open on a dorsett. Keep hoping off and on to find one close(fingers crossed),but I still might go for a newer Aristo Craft I/O. I guess it just depends on what I find. Jim
