Need Help checking out a Boat

[IXFE]

Oh, and I agree that asnowman should have NO regrets. He just bought himself an awesome experience and a new friend.

Sometimes the journey is way more interesting than the destination.

Glad you two got this potential buy sorted out. Sorry I had to work and missed the fun this morning.

Too bad we could not extend the visit to this weekend and take in Smith Lake!

I will say it was the coolest morning in months, I think asnowman brought the Maine weather down with him!

this is so cool.

Awesome story. I've started boat shopping 2k mikes away. Hopefully if I find the right one I'll be able to meet some crew members along the way.

Great story! Thats one of them your going to be able to tell your grand kids once your too old to do much else but sit around and tell story's. I was looking forward to a pull behind that next time we were down thou!

You ALMOST got that sucker dropped off at your place for a month. hahahaha

Indeed, my first thought with engine issues was, mainekneeboarder will make it run like his boat does....

Definitely willing to help, but it will cost you in pulls!

Thankfully you don't have to deal with this one. ha

The top end tick would've been fairly easy to get rid of. And the motor ran well. Wish I had thought to bring my compression tester with me.

But the rest of the boat just compounded "neglect" problems one after the other.

Pulls are free.... the lake is calling . . . again.

We were hoping to make it this weekend but are not going to be able to. Maybe once more in mid September.

This is an awesome thread. I'm bummed I missed out. Just moved to Birmingham this summer and always looking for Malibu peeps. Plus this sounds like a good adventure.
