We are not getting a new boat, we don't use Altec the way we use to and it is to good of a boat to just sit around, we hate to sell it :-(

I'll go in on it with someone. Preferably someone who knows how to drive it and won't mind grilling hot dogs while I'm underwater.

That is not to expensive when you consider all the gear you get with it. Heck, you can sell those 5 CCR's for at least half the price of the boat. :smt064 :smt064

I can grill something way better than just dogs, or else the best damn dogs you ever had, and I'm willing to learn how to drive it!
