| Just to prove the point that anyone can have anything they want without a lot of money, I got a boat. It didn't take me long to find one simply by reading the classified section for a few weeks. I found a 1973 Cris-Craft for $250 Must sell. Called up and took a ride to check it out. It was full of weeds and leaves, and the motor was seized up. But hey lets see if he'll take $150?? No, but he'd think about it... That sunday he called me up and Said I could take it for $150 if I took a set of old patio furniture with it. Hey what the hell. Towed it home and started cleaning. My ex-girlfriend who loves to clean helped me get it cleaned up and a little more respectable looking. I was lucky enough that my father had an old outboard motor from a 70's fishing boat. But I've seen alot of ads in the classifieds for cheap old motors that only need a tune up to run good. So all said and done For $300, and some elbow grease I have a nice recreational boat to get away in. I'll have Picures and some more info in the Spring, its wrapped up for winter now. |
