just found out via email today is a sad day. in college once upon a time me and some bodies bought a boat. whyd we buy it? we were bored, so we bought a boat. that ol boat ive skied behind i dont know how many times. heck even when my buddies got their own newer, better boats and the times we went boating it was always trailered along for ol time sake. the transom rotted out i guess. the motor dang near fell off. thought id pass on the end of an era...
 
The obvious question is, did it have a visor?

no doubt. not sure what youd compare it to today. it was old, beaten, worn out and smelly when we bought it that late summer. we bought it from some hill billy, i dont remember what we paid for it or what my "share" was but something like a $500 junker today. lots of good times, you know at that time you could run your boat all day for a couple of bucks. it was underpowered but fun, that first winter we got her looking half way decent and got it running ok. we eventually put on a new(er) (bigger) motor.

Chick appeal? Or did you guys have that covered?

JO said it was smelly , ergo no chick appeal unless she fishes for a living and is named Thelma. :biggrin:

I saved for years just to buy a boat and now I don't have the heatlh to care for one.

Ode to the Fishing Boat
When I was a young boy,
I met a girl,
along a nameless green canal.
The churning oil streaked water was lined with sand worn wooden planks and shacks.
Next to giant spools of drying grayed netting, I watched her in the water.
Her features were less then flattering.
She was awkward and her makeup was peeling.
But to me she was beautiful and she was forever.
I would stand next to her,
and watch the salmon flop down the man-made ladder falls,
while families walked by with their bounty of Carlson?s smoked fish and Leland candy.
Every year I would have to say goodbye,
but I swore I would be back, always.
And every year,
I return to the green canal next to the fishery,
and the first thing I look for is her.
She is always there; Lashed to a dock, bobbing up and down.
Empty of the morning catch, she rests.


Oh Boo Hoo Hoo :biggrin:

Ode to a boat by Best Buckeye;

Ahem ,

Boats of all kinds are bought by men
They really don't need a reason,
Could be for fishing or just for fun
Or even the mating season.

Just a space to be just men
And maybe to quaff a few,
Or a platform to swim in a pool
To impress and bang a Stew.

Boats plant their anchors into men's hearts
And keep them from tearing free,
With dogs and cars and bikes and pals
they are always a part of me.

Work and slave to keep them afloat
with many a mighty swear men rend,
And with the end of each scarred plank
boats take a part of me.

Thank yew , Thank yew. (Bow).
