What was i thinking, i'm going through a divorce after being married for 13 years so i go out and buy a 35' Cigarette and then i have to buy a new truck to pull the boat since my Viper powered dodge pickup can't pull it, the first day at the river i go through over 200 gal of fuel ( but at least it uses regular which was only $3.52 a gal) I mean how much fun can you have on a boat anyhow, but what the heck you only live once right so may as well go out and have a good time you never know you might meet some nice people out on the water.

nice pic Dan :D
the big boat won that deal, I offered a ride to the dam for all the ladies after the "dalmation" gave up the ghost and they chose the vessel assist route :cry:

Dalmation let something go in the top end... Everyone seems to think it is something pretty simple. 3 - 5k :cry: Thanks for everyone whom stopped to help..
Dan... GREAT PICTURE.. :)

the first day at the river i go through over 200 gal of fuel ( but at least it uses regular which was only $3.52 a gal)
That is one of the things that steered me away from the Cig and towards the Spectre. Fuel consumption in the Cigs are just about enough to make a grown man cry, but they are sweet boats. :D :D :D

Hold the phone folks, I am speaking with Phil Jr ( Outdoor Sports Prescott) in a lil bit to see if we can slide her in under warranty.

yea i don't understand how we could have used so much fuel we were only doing 60 to 75 all day except for the 10 mile tow, we went over 200 miles :D

Thanks for the offer but I'm thinking the motor MAY be under warranty :D Ken is checking on it and I have my fingers crossed..

H2O Toie...as we passed each other, your boat looked great. Very nice ride.
I went through about 150 gallons of AV gas ($3/gallon)...
...but how can you put a price on fun?
:D

Havasu which boat is yours?
I was being sarcastic about the money it was worth every penny, heck i going out to catalina this weekend and back to Mojave the weekend after, My friend that went with me had never been to the river before so it was quite an experence for him, we meet a lot of great people and would have gone back on Sun if we hadn't been so hungover,(Thanks GHtrim/Frenchie)

H2O Toie.
Great looking boat, I love seeing it run at speed. I think we run through the basin towards the end of the day together, I was in my little red boat. I can't run wide open in the rougher stuff to long. But it is nice seeing a big boat handle the chop. :cool:

I can only imagine what you were thinking but I'll bet the "little guy" was doing the thinking for the "big guy" (understandable after a divorce) :D
