I will be there. In lieu of a keg, perhaps a couple cases of bottled water would be good? Or, potatoes/fries? Let me know which would be better to bring.

Less than 7 gal of diesel . . . I don't think that'd even get the boat out of the harbor. LOL

Hoo-weee Jefe that boat is a nice rig. What is it? Carver? Maybe a Hatteras cockpit motor yacht? Tell me all about it so I can dream and drool :D

Jefe

Hoo-weee Jefe that boat is a nice rig. What is it? Carver? Hatteras? Tell me all about it so I can dream and drool :D
Its an '89 Hatteras 60' that we bought in ~2001
We then had it lenghtened to 70' (added the cockpit and enlarged the aft deck and master stateroom)
3 staterooms
Two Detroit twin turbo 8V92's
Burns ~70GPH at full cruise -17knots :eek:
or 30GPH at 10knots
Two 20kW Onan Generators
Holds 1600 gal of Diesel, 330 gal of fresh water

AND its for sale. Come out and take a look, I know you want it. :D

And this is great party so far. You all are missing out. :p
(I'm here by myself. :rolleyes: )

Ummm, YEAH i want it..... but I think it's probably a few hundred thousand out of my price range. :)

.... not to mention I couldn't even afford to fuel the sucker.... there's so many huge boats at our marina that I don't think have left their slips since a couple of years ago and I think that's a shame - if I have a boat, it's going to do what a boat is supposed to do, which according to Webster is a vessel that is made to move over water ["move" being the operative term in this case]. :)
