No I didn't leave the dock I can't afford to feed those Detroit 12V71Ti's anymore all I do is wax polish clean and pray someone will buy it ^so I can stop paying for that damn slip..... But Monty usually gets a gull so fun for him and the other boys, plus my buddos all come along a couple times a year to harass all the pretty young things! We've been doing it now for twenty five years ^so I really don't think I'll ever sell it! He'll I've had that boat longer than I've had my wife! And it requires less maintenance.....
Jim...& wet fat Monty (he's been in the pool)

All the money is right! At $15 a foot it's $900 a month to keep it wet and you can't sell it in dry storage, the brokers won't show them, ^so it really is just a hole in the water you throw money into! I thought how cool grandpa left me his boat, yeah right!

There's a guy here in Chandler I've been buying parts from for years, he's on McQueen Rd ^so of Germann only does ford trucks and he has EVERYTHING I have yet to not find what I'm looking for from him! He runs the Midwest a couple times a year buying trucks and brings them back and parts them out mostly 60 to 79 but some later year stuff
Jim & fat Monty
