Ok guys.
This is a poll for how many pages it will be before the free flat bottom boat is recovered. no prizes or money or anything. just post how many pages it will be. lets have some fun with this. i`ll start it off.
my guess is   18

[crusader1983]

my guess is whatever page it is one now double it! 

[shallow running]

havent been here long but i have read the whole thread an i will guess 32. and by then it will be at the bottom of the lake again.....lmao

Its funny, out of all the people who have chimed in through all the pages of the other thread about "I cant believe its not recovered yet, blah blah", No one has offered to lend some muscle, boat, trailer, etc. other then a select few.

I will bet money its flipped by next week and at least parted out. I wont bet on how many pages because its to easy to make it more pages.

If i was closer i would be there in a second to help with this effort.... but im in Illinois which sucks yall are on the water already i still have 2 or 3 weeks till the river gets back down........

[shallow running]

if anyones interested there are 2 WW2 pt boats sunk in the ohio river...need help to salvage any takers.....lmao

[Nordie]

Sure, then we can salvage the sub down here

[shallow running]

the pt boats are for real. when we go to the river i will get some pics of them and post em up...

it has to come to this because it is all in fun. i know it is hard to get everyone together on a specific time,date,hour to go and get this done. like shallow running said ... if i lived closer i would be all to willing to help. but living in okie town like i do it is really not worth it for me. i also know that if i lived closer to everyone else i could have a ton of help getting my boat done. i have been lucky to find this site and read and learn from all of you guys. i have also been shown the generousity of those on this site towards me with some parts for my boat for either nothing or just shipping charges.
and what really makes this a great site is that we ARE ABLE TO POST something like this and most everyone takes it for how it was meant and that is good natured ribbing. nothing is meant to be mean spirited and if it is taken that way then i apologize for it.

[HDriderTH]

We  can take it   

[blackbeard]

thanks HD
i know you can it is just that i have a very dry,sarcastic sense of humor and i forget that some people have a hard time, cant understand the way it is meant to be. so i thought i would just respond in the way it was meant to be. all in fun and humor.

[shallow running]

yeah what i said was all in good humor sorry if i offended anyone!!!!!!

[OC2Vegas]

I wasnt offended. I, of all people will rib and joke with everyone (Just ask 2sav  ) Just wanted to let everyone know that we havent had much help.

I love adventures like this and cant wait to see what comes of it!

[blackbeard]

Hey Oc
man like i said if i lived closer i would jump at the chance to help out. looks like a lot fun just getting it flipped. might be when you get it flipped it is worthless but just the planning,staging and what not involved would be worth it to me. hell getta big come-a-long and tie it to one of the boats and flip it over. lol. it has been a lot of fun just reading all of this adventure. hopefully you guys will get it all figured out soon and we will all be loving it when you flip it.

chit like this is just up my ally,love historic stuff, theres gotta be a story behind the flat bottom its certainly peeked my intrest

[OC2Vegas]

Like I said, I love doing this kind of stuff!

[blackbeard]

that is one of the reasons for the poll thread i made. was thinking maybe i could get some guys to post a number and then want to help you out so that they could "WIN". LOL. but guess that part isn`t working out so well. and yeah it has been an adventure reading about from the first post.and like i said hopefully it will be resolved soon.
and i agree the love of the adventure is most of the fun.

[IRRebel]

Personally, I would guess a page or two of pictures if Tuesdays rescue goes down. This is gonna be a Kodak Moment. Rivermamma going along Terry? Jenn going Brad? need photographers, and you need Chromey for the "manuel" labor, lol.

Jeremy, call me about Monday sometime this week. My cells about dead and the charger's at work, but it's 480-437-4382. Home is 520-509 1518 if need be. Maybe I'll send the new intake and carb along so Terry has something to do next week,  .

Then, maybe July or August we go look for 2Sav's "Sub", lol

attempt number 4 at responding to this thread! when i was trying to respond earlier if someone else posts while im trying it messes my phone up! so i really got pissed cause i couldnt put out a response! so everyone knows im not mad or offended or anything...just cant justify why there would be another thread started when there is already one going on...i know it was all in fun and im all for that, but still...anyway the way i see it is the flatty is there and it aint going anywhere...i mean shit how long have we been talking about this already...it was almost forgot about till someone brought it back up and now everyone wants to make a joke...i know i dont really have much room to talk because im actually the person who has the conflicting schedule with making an effort to do whatever it is with this thing...anyway so everyone knows im not mad or anything, and yes it is cool and i know everyone was having fun so carry on!

[IRRebel]

It's OK Nordie. we understand. Yeah, there's already a post, and shoulda had a poll attached to it to make it somewhat understandable, lol.

But it'll be ok Lil Bunny! What's done is done, lol
