Already...I have had for a good 4-5 months!!! :) :) :)
It is a cool boat, but I am just a v-drive guy at heart. Plus, we have boats coming out of our ears in my family and I never end up using my boat.

I thought about a conversion....but you know me, by the time I was done, I'd have $40K into it and it would still need a $25K Vale paint job and another 400 ponies!!!!

I'm not charging for the plywood:confused:
You've been in CL long enough.I expect to see a tri-hull bowrider you bought from a CL garage sale.Add Tuna Tower,fat sacks,25 speakers,and don't forget the black socks.It's time to conform to your surroundings.
It's lunch time in P Town...Tacos again? Damn.:mad:

Sweet boat HM, is the rubrail painted? :idea:
Sweet boat HM, is the rubrail painted? :idea:
There is no rubrail on the boat right now. But, it did have a mixture of painted and anodized aluminum. The rub rail was the next task, but I took it off as soon as I got it.
Also, this is one of those boats that looks better in the photo than in person. The paint is a cool color, but it needs a couple runs to be color sanded out. If the paint was actually as clean as it looks in the photo...I would be asking $12K for it. Don't get me wrong, it does look good, but I am very anal about this stuff...I wasn't joking about the Dick Vale paint job. I had THREE of them on my old Mandella. Also, the scallops just don't do it for me....although I was told they look better when it is in the water (and probably with a 12'r of silver bullets in ya).

The extensive pictures of the interior are of the new upholstery. The first pics are from when I picked up the boat this summer.

boat looks good, I like the interior too.

It is a little different with the cloth. I had cloth in the Cambell and I loved it. Gave it a little tuck-n-roll action for a retro look. I did the back to back with jump seats because I have 4 kids and not only wanted to seat all of them and then some....but they like facing forward and were always fighting over the passenger bucket. I am going to do the same layout in the next v-drive cruiser. :D
Dropped boat off at MPD today and Jack got the place diverter working and says the Berkeley 12JC looks to be in reasonably good shape (based on visual inspection of the impeller)
Gonna take it out on Elsinore tommorrow...so if anyone wants a test ride or even just a ride, pm me.

You can always come out for a ride if you don't make it to the river.
Not going to go out on Saturday...kids have TaeKwonDo, 3 birthday parties, and an art show.
So...Sunday is what I am shooting for. Probably get out around 11 AM.

When your on the boat,
If HM asks you "So...have you ever been to Russian mens bath house?"
Jump over board.Elsinore is small,you'll make it to shore.
Oh,and another thing.Don't fall for the old "Do you smell gas?"Trick.
This leads into talk of his azz or you bent over the seat checkin the motor.
If you catch my drift;)

Still for sale. Negotiating some possible trades, but no one has committed to anything yet.

Well, I have been fighting a ground water problem and I can't put in concrete until I get the french drains done. I am all out of silver bullets and carburators that need rebuilding so Brian hasn't been returning my phone calls.:confused: :confused: :confused: :D

I am pretty flexible on the price. $7,500 is definitely a fair price for this thing, but I know the used market is soft. Make an offer...you can't offend me!

Hey....wasn't I supposed to call you and let you know if Soggy Dry Lake was open? Hey...it's open. :D
Kids had an art show on Saturday along with two birthday parties. Also, I ran out of gas, the gauge is broken, I got a flat tire, traffic was a night mare on Bear Valley Rd (that last one is very true). :D
