The two happest days of a boat owners life...

[Wildcard]

Soon! to the diving question. Yes, you can watch me dock but bring the video cam, I could use that 10K prize. Thanks for the congrats, I now have five holes to pour money into, I gotta down size. Crap, I gotta get a blow up boat to dive off of now too.
"There's a bit more outside wood trim than I'd prefer, but the inside is lovely." Me too, I hate bright work. We were having some bubbly tonight at the harbor and the boat next to us had it's lights come on. It has the same bright work but fresh, still has the tape and new Awlgrip, so very pretty!
So for some back ground, this boat was first owned by the producer of "Creature from the black lagoon"...

Condolulations!

They say the only thing better than having a boat, is having a friend who has a boat (wink-wink, nudge-nudge ).

That works as long as the boat is big enough

"Of course, those pictures were taken a few years ago, but isn't she a classic?"

...Now you will have some place to sleep if kathy kicks you out.

that's one expensive dog-house =/
hmm.. as said the other day.. maybe it's time to sell the house and just live at the dock.. heh.

congrats.. and if you need help crossing the channel to maui.. i own a gilligan hat =)

Get yourself a Port Supply account so those endless trips to West Marine on Sand Island Road are slightly less painful. You're keeping her at Rainbow Bay Marina?

Congratulations or condolences as you prefer.

The day you buy it and the day you sell it.

Over here we say: Buy a boat, pay 'til you croak. :14:

In Dutch it even rhymes.

Congrats Wildcard, she's a beauty.

It's going to stay at Ko Olina untill Hickam gets off there butts and puts the new moorings in.
Now I have to learn to sail....

Wow - it's gorgeous!

This isn't really a boat to dive off of, is it? It looks more like a "you-and-K-sitting- back-and-watching-the-sunset-while-drinking-adult-beverages" kind of boat.

Whenever you go out of town and want us to duct tape a 2x4 swim step to it, let us know. I betcha Catherine will even let you borrow her grill.

It's more like a boat to get us to places to dive. Im getting a small inflatable to dive off of. An air compressor is in the plans too.
