BP's Tahiti Bubble
« on: July 12, 2010, 09:24:00 AM »
Well guys, I finally got it home on Friday night. Had my sister stop by Riverdads house on her way up to Vegas. This boat is sweet! I can't wait to drop my pickle power in there. Need to make fuel lines, water lines, install a nozzle and drop in the engine. Here is the first pic

Single Dad... The she who does the laundry is 9. I'd like to see her try to kick my ass, lol. Honestly it is a tight fit in the garage but not quite as bad as it looks.

LOL! Same boat here, but my 13 year old cannot figure out that thing or the dishwasher. I think I posted pics of what happened when she did run the dishwasher once,  classic! As my mom says, "With Becca's personality, we can hope she marries well....." . I'm not sure what to think about that, coming from her grandmother...... :screwy:

Looks a lot like Nordies boat, and I love Nordies boat. You should have a very good handling boat there!

I have one off of a JG sitting in my garage. It's yours for free...Well maybe for something cold to drink ;D. Depending on how soon you need it I can deliver it to you. I am going to be in Vegas next week (July 22-25). Let me know. Jared
