:twitch: I um..... Really... Just....


Oh forget it I just can't wrap my head aaround how that seemed like a good idea.

I also like how they changed the C in Congo to a B for Bongo. Just draw a few lines. I'm sure they went through the proper renaming process for Posiedon.

Some times when you see things, that old phase comes to mind; "Looks Like An Accident Looking For A Place To Happen". Enough said! :eek:

Probably the same. His ad did say: "The date on the photo is not correct on my camera. Pic taken Nov. 16". But, was that Nov 16 2016 or 2004? :facepalm:

.... and how could you take the motor out of your boat and not know how many cylinders it was, horse power maybe but not cylinders...

This tells you all you need to know about the level or rather, the lack of maintenance. :doh:

Reminds of of a really old Ed "Big Daddy" Roth cartoon where he is at a speed shop trying to buy a cam, and the guy behind the counter has about a 10 foot long rod of camlobes with bolt cutters ready to pinch one off and asks 'Whattatya got, a 6 or an 8'.

Dunno' if it's worth $3,500 - but it's actually a pretty nice piece of work. Really close to how a true dugout would be built.

Probably doesn't seem like it is worth that much unless you did the work. There is a lot of manual labor there. But not my cup of tea.
