WOW...

"Remember T-1, the Intracoastal Waterway only runs to Anclote Key and you never want to take a 50 year old boat like your's out of the Intracoastal. I gets choppy out in the Gulf sometimes with afternoon thunderstorms and a boat that old probably has "fiberglass fatigue" anyway. It's liable to break in half. You'd probably get salt spray on the windshield and fish blood all over your teak before 9:00 AM. Plus it has one of those antique propulsion systems that uses an old cast iron Chevrolet (what got some of my stimulus money) car engine with two 90 degree turns on the drive shaft - that will never work! T-1, just be warned."

I guess I never realized that...now you got me worried...I think I will have to put the boat up for sale...

Anybody out there want a 50 year old boat cheap...I guess its not worth much.

Send me your best offer, and if its not good enough I will just take it off shore and pull the plug....
