I'm going to go kick Miller in the Junk.

Seriously, I found a boat to buy up there, just curiouse how much of a drive is envolved... I figure about 9 - 10 hrs.

I think that it took us 7 hours to get to Havasu. But that was going down to OC to meet up with the HD crew. So I think that you could do in a little less time.

Where in my area is the boat?

I'm looking at 68campbell's uhh.... 68 Campbell.

He's had spamed on Hot Boat for a couple months now. His profile says he's in Santa Ynez. :stupid

I was trying to figure how many days it would take me to go and get it if I do buy.

Is it a decent boat? He said mechanically and structurally it's in pretty good shape, but just average cosmetically.

I'm going to call Todd and talk to him somemore about the boat this afternoon, I'll see if he has any more pics. Ã‚Â If not, I'll let ya know. Ã‚Â :good

I donÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t know the boat real well. The only time that I have seen it; it didnÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t have an engine in it.

I think that it is a wood deck under the yellow paint. It has potential but cosmetically it could use some work. I would bet that he would let it go cheap so it would probably be worth it if you are looking for a project.

ToddÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s brother works in LA sometimes so he may be able to take it down there to save you a few miles. Just a thought.

Ahhh...got it

It's all little Mexico to me. Do they still have that 12 mile "free zone" down there in Nogales? I always thought that was interesting :rolleyes

Figured that after an illegal was 12 miles in, they were home free :rolleyes

Got a little :drink

This weekends slammed with the IHBA's up in PHX(not sure if we are going or not yet) and a huge party (4000-5000 peeps) on Saturday that we try and go to everyyear.

Maybe the we'll go the weekend of Mothers Day/Beckys Bday

Hell you should have called, I was solo on Saturday. Went out and shot some clay birdies in the morning then just sat at the house watching crappy movies on TV. :sleep

Tuna.. I figure between 9 and 10 hrs, that sounds about resonable from all the info I've gathered about the drive. :good
