Re: Freak'n boats
It would be easier to wax if you got it out of the water bro.
I guess waxing the hull is another reason that the two happiest days in a boat owner's life are the day he buys it and the day he sells it.
I mentioned buying a boat once and Dad told me it was just a hole in the water you throw money into.

Re: Freak'n boats
I put mine on the trailer to wax it.
Much easier that way, and you get to use power tools.

Re: Freak'n boats

Re: Freak'n boats
No kiddin.
I owned a M20J for about 3 years. And while I got to fly it all over this country and into the carribian it was a giant money suck. Then I got a boat. Too big for a trailer I had to have a marina slip. That was an even bigger money AND time suck.
I still have a wife. I think they cost you more after you get rid of them.

Re: Freak'n boats
I owned a boat dealership for 11 years, I could type for hours about boats. Boat manufacturers never new that at some point a Tech would have to work on it!!!!!
My guys would cuss for hours about some of the shit you would have to do just to change an oil filter...

i love it. thats great
a charter i use alot showed me a spread sheet he worked up for a boat show. excluding the cost of fuel because you have to pay that with a charter regardless, after you factor in the note, insurance, and maintenance you can charter 9 times a year before before its cheaper to own a bluewater boat.
i'm gettin one anyway.

I feel your pain, got rid of my Contender 23 when gas hit $3.50 a gallon, now I spend about as much to fill my Hewes as I do my Toyota, but it sips way less gas. Maybe I should have bought a motorcycle again.

One thing I've noticed though...women take their clothes off on boats.
Not so on airplanes, however...

Re: Freak'n boats
The way to do it is to buy a lake house. All your boys will show up with their boats, giving you a guaranteed spot on them. Their investment will suck up money and devalue, while you gain equity and value in yours, in theory.

Not true my man. At 6000 feet on auto pilot GPS direct and 3 more hours to go.....
As long as you keep your headset on and respond to radio calls you can get plenty busy in an airplane. You just have to be careful.
Not that I ever engaged in that kind of behavior mind you, but it can be done.

Re: Freak'n boats
I apply the same logic to boats that I apply to vegetable gardens:
I would rather have a neighbor with one than to have one myself.

Re: Freak'n boats
Boats, Guns, Reloading, Bourbon, Cigars, Motorcycles, Cars/Trucks are all things that suck money faster than a whore on BC Street...
Wax on, wax off, wax on ad infinitum

Re: Freak'n boats
I hate to tell you but waxing the bottom of a boat is useless. It probably only last a few hours at most. I used to work at Donzi dealership back in high school. Auto wax when submerged breaks down in a few hours. It is good to remove all the oxidation and fouling, I will give you that.
Maybe, there is some new formula wax for the bottom.

Re: Freak'n boats
I am rather happy with mine, and yes you can see some rather interesting thing from the vessel. Of course I live 1.5 miles from the Alabama River. I have either had a motorcycle or a boat for as long as I can remember.

Re: Freak'n boats
Not mine, but a friend's boat. I started out as rail meat and ended up a steersman (that's me in the white shirt). Can't wait to retire and get my own.
Witch Doctor - The owner used to ease into the shallows with this boat near the old Ponchatrain Beach and scrub the hull before racing season. Lots of fun when the local dive team comes and recovers a floater, while you're about 100 yards away cleaning your boat.

Re: Freak'n boats
Thats funny, how long ago was that. Its been awhile since I had to get a floater out of Lake Ponchatrain. We usually are pulling stolen cars out of the canals. I know where that picture was taken, theres an area where I take my dogs too not far from it.
