2 boats! long post~

[Franky219]

Hi All,
I recently went to an estate auction to bid on a 15 ft runabout with 85 horsepower motor, Well, I ended up with that AND a 12 ft aluminum rowboat
with a 9.5 hp Evinrude. My better half is royally pi$$ed but my total was only $550.00! (cold rainy day and no one was there). I am officially a boat
owner now!!! Thanks to this forum and all who post here! I knew nothing,zero, zilch about boats but have managed to get both started, replaced the Impellers and took the Rinker out on the lake. Only mishap was when I dove to the back to put in plug I banged my head.....And found where the Bilge pump is. It works great if the switch is turned on~~Doh~~
Anyways, A HUGE thank you to all who Give their advice in this forum!
As soon as I figure out how to do it I'll post pics of my new (to me) boats.
Thanks again,
Franky219 PS. Anyone have a large doghouse for sale?
Big enough for me and my dog!

load you pictures on the computer, then when you post, clik the "go advanced" box at the bottom, the clik, manage attachments, then you upload your pictures there, when uploaded, X it out, and clik post quick reply

Sounds like you got a pretty good deal on the boats. That 12 footer and E'rude, even in cosmetically bad condition, should fetch close to 500 bucks in the normal world.
