I hate spending $$ on stuff that I don't really want. Â Even though it would be nice to have it for the rest of the summer, I'm still not sure that I wanna spend the $$ on it |
Just buy it

I was thinking, I could throw an interior in Mrs BBT's boat, Put in a BBC and get rid of that BBF, re-rig it real quick like (It's a Jet...no problem), and voila' she has a useable boat I can always take it back apart in the winter for the new paint that it needs desperately... Going with this idea, it would take me a month or so, depending on the upholstery guy and of course, my back (VERY unpredictable)
Oooppsss...I hate to interrupt this post, Mrs BBT just told me Happy 6th anniversary I hate forgetting things like that
Now then, back where I was, ahhh hell, maybe I should just buy the damn boat. I can see myself working on Mrs BBT's boat....1 day of work = 3-4 days in bed Ok, I talked myself into it

Ok, here's the deal. Went up to the neighbor today to hand him the cash. He says, "You know, me and the Mrs were talking about it last night and I don't think we want to sell you this boat. It's a piece of shit and something is wrong with it. It won't even get up on plane with 4 people in the boat. I'd rather sell it to someone I don't know". Well, I thanked him for his honesty and told him you're right, I don't want to buy that boat. I wasn't so sure I wanted it in the first place so that just made up my mind. Luckily, we didn't buy another boat yet. Another bill suddenly came up today....Seems that when we refinanced our house in March, the Title/Escrow folks neglected to pay our insurance. It was gonna be terminated tomorrow! Well, we paid it today....But it wasn't cheap and I let everyone involved know just how pissed off I was (and still am).

Yes, I'll start fixing up the "Other" B Boat Not tomorrow though. This week is the kids last week of school and I'm running all over town at different times of the day picking up kids. Some get out early, some get out late, some get out in the middle somewhere, etc But NEXT week, I start on the Daycruiser. First thing on the agenda is pull that stinkin' 460 Ford out of it! Then, it's time for a BBC and a new interior and a trailer restore. We're gonna save the paint job for next year since we'd like to try and get the boat on the water this year. I think I can do it, but we'll have to wait and see how things go with the old you know what

Let me know if it's garbage, if it ain't too much for freight I'll take it I can use it for mock up, it'll just sit outside anyways until I need it..For some reason there ain't no big blocks here, it's overflowing with small block Fords though!..
