Waiting is the hardest part...

[mippel]

On March 13 went and looked at a pampered, brokerage 2004 Regal 1800 that was for sale at the dealer that is was bought and serviced at. Placed a offer below asking and it was accepted. Placed a down payment contingent on a sea trial on march 20th. On Monday, April 19th, went on the sea trial, and it went smoother then expected. Getting the oil changed and the blower fixed (making ugly sound) before we take it home. Also the previous owner is selling us his extra boating accessories (anchor, life vests and skis). Have not heard from the dealer that it is ready to be picked up. Every time the phone rings i get so excited. The weather has been real nice for a MN spring. In the mean time, i have been looking at all the info here and looking forward to many great years of boating enjoyment. Thanks for listening.

Re: Waiting is the hardest part...

A boat will drain your bank account, cause a divorce or breakup, drive the neighbors nuts with your tinkering and running in the driveway at 6am, leave oil spots and chunks of grease on that driveway, bust open your shins on the trailer tongue, cause you grief and anguish at the ramp, give you high blood pressure and drive you to drink copious amounts of beer.

Damn I love boats!!!!!
