We had a pleasant day strolling around the boat show today. Plenty of great boats for sale there to cater for most tastes. There is some serious grunt on the back of some of the fishing rigs and also some great cruisers on show.
We met up with chimo for a chat, lunch and a few cool ales. A very pleasant day indeed.

me work? only about 60 to 70 hours minimum a week..I was up at 2am today organising things before I went. That last pic may look ugly on the outside but the space inside being a 36' boat is amazing.

Pinhead,

I'd have to splash a bit of Mullet Gut on it to give it that "Homely" feel (& smell) !!

Are you contemplating an upgrade ?????


Heading to to Tiger Mullet for an overnighter this Saturday, I believe those silver spikey things are making an early appearance.

Cheers
Craigie.

Thanks for whacking the pics up for those of us they may not get to see them in the Flesh/Gelcoat !!

Hey Pinhead and Chimo,

Youse mob bought anything yet? I liked the piccy of the thingy with the 3 x 275 HP outboards, but was wondering where the fuel would be stored. I guess it (the fuel) wouldn't have a chance to get stale.

Greg, I think I should be there with you to add a bit of class to the joint, and just to get up the shirtlifters who are selling the stuff and to perv on the adornments.

Mind you, if they had an outfit with the Breaka Girls adorning the outfit and cavorting on the said outfit, then I suppose I could rake up $500K max. No more. They would have to cavort all the time though, while I took piccys, for that sort of folding stuff.

Well, maybe just a bit more.

Then I would be requested to leave home.

Hey TOL

Didn't buy too much apart for food and drink but found a nice little cat (originally designed for the navy) with a couple of 90s I'm probably going to try out next week.

The jet ski girls have become a disappointment as they are into shorts etc instead of the previous bikini gear. They reckon they were getting burnt, I didn't quite understand what they mean't by that??

Cheers
Chimo

I think the Pinhead will have disappeared into the vault for the weekend so might have to stay tuned for the next update!

Yes Chimo,

He's very quiet isn't he? Does that mean that he's up to no good?

Or does it mean that he's going to come up with something that will blow everybody away? Hmmmmm, the mind boggles, doesn't it?

On another matter, are you up for another GOM bizzo in the future? I'm really getting worse, and I need a forum of like minded geniuses (or should that be geniui, plural) and smart people to express my frustrations, winges and all things in general.

Talking to blokes like yourself really help me to feel better, you know. That's because we're all very smart and we can solve things. Not everybody can do that. Except us GOM.

Hey TOL

As an "Apprentice Lifestyle Consultant" GOM, AM; I'm here to help.:D

Another GOM session is always on the cards as far as I'm concerned. We could probably bring our own hooks in case we have leftovers so we don't have to rely on others; I'm sure he's as sick of that running gag as we are;) Besides thanks to LP there are other things to get distracted on such as fallowing the Gold banks for a crop of salt tollerant something or other?

Did you plan on doing the boat show thing? There is some good stuff to look at.

I reckon one of these; with or without the breaka gal; would be cool for towing a lure without any noise http://www.aquaglide.net/multisport_overview.cfm With a fleet we could do GOM races ::)

Hey Pin

A little mystery is always good, especially when it comes to banks / vaults / boats / ie new or otherwise!

Did you get a sample bag at least?
