  • best deal ever

    me and a buddy bought a cheap boat off of craigslist.

    16 foot side console 1974 cajun thunder boat with 1974 85hp johnson.

    came with trailer and CURRENT TAGS. needed the steering fixed and me and a buddy had it done two hours after buying the thing. total cost? $320

    this thing FLIES, we took it from 8 mile boat ramp across the bay all the way down to the yacht basin and back. we DID run out of gas but thats no biggie hahaha. probably got about 35 mph if not more. anyways i have a new toy for the winter.

            How much did you pay to begin with. I wanna compare it to the deal I got on the Gray Ghost.

                  Ah, I thought that's what it cost to do the fixing. Yep, y'all busted my bubble. Good goin'!

                        i wanna cut the gunwales off and make it a flat deck.

                        next up though fix the party bus, then fix the trim on the boat.

                        tailgating takes priority haha
