Sorry about your Lock-R-Bar Ernie. Also guys I apologize for not being online much. I myself have several surgeries coming up including one on my throat I need to get scheduled and have been doing some spring cleaning & throwing out the trash -a very large portion or Load of S&!$ being my ex business partner. He and I almost came to blows in my front yard yesterday. I had to remind him who's property he was on. He sold that Sling Shot which, most of the money in that boat was mine $400. He got $1,000. out of it, and didn't give me a penny. Plus, he told the guy he sold it to he could run it with the transom that bad, and to really top it off, that it was a 70 mph boat!! LMAO he, he, he, he, hahahahahahe, he, he, he:eek::D:D:p:p:p:D:p I couldn't contain myself. That thing would be lucky to plane off at all without the motor going for a swim followed soon by the boat the way it is. The guy who bought it called me the other day cause he saw my business add, wanting the carbs rebuilt. When I found out who he was and which boat he was talking about I told him the truth about the rig especially how dangerous it is to run it without replacing the transom. I further told him very politely I wouldn't touch it unless the transom was replaced first. My former business partner after crying the blues to me how he wanted to keep that boat for himself, that it was his only chance to ever have a nice boat, blah blah blah blah blah, after buying it out from under me in the first place did nothing but lie to me, use me, etc. enough said about that f___er Anyway I've just been going through a lot lately finding out who my real friends are a long the way. Seems I only have my girlfriend up here and one other person; the daughter of someone I thought was a friend who took care of my cats when I was down south. It seems my only friends are down south, cause the guy'd daughter who took care of my cats is leaving for GA next week. So I've just been going through a lot. Just bear with me. Ally:(
