Took a trailer load of stuff to a consignment auction including a riding mower, 2 farm implements, Allis Chalmers hubs, old chainsaw, and a john Deere Bagger attachment. Auction runs in a month. I will also be taking my boat, haven't used it in a couple of years.

Boat
That's called : BOAT (Bust Out Another Thousand).
I bought a small boat from an old friend since the late 70’s that was going through a Divorce, nice 16’ 1965 Evinrude Trihull with a 69 Merc 80 or 90hp outboard, power trim, live bait well etc but I ended up buying a much nicer alum trailer, had a new Conv Top made and had a lot of fun, my friend was supposed to buy it back later but didnt and I told him same $750 I gave him for it after replacing a bunch of stuff, Oh well, I dont even know how to swim and along with friends would go out in the Gulf of Mexico where you couldnt “Hardly” see land
plenty Life Jackets though, Oh yeah had it painted with lettering too

This is my 3rd boat. My first one was a 1963 Texas Maid, I had it for almost 10 years. We then bought a 1995 Sweetwater pontoon boat, had it for 5 and this one, a 1996 Sunbird I have had for about 8 years. Our Durango was purchased to pull the pontoon so when we got this 20' boat with an I/O 4.3L V-6 Volvo Penta outdrive the Durango had a boat to pull again. I wanted a GM engine boat for ease of repair and I have had to pull it out and work on it,. We have taken it to several lakes but with campgrounds filling up fast and lake front sites a challenge to get, we haven't used it much.Boat
A fast boat also scares the wife, the Sunbird will go 40 MPH on plane, she likes a pontoon and if we buy again, it will be a pontoon.
What would she do in a fast boat?

One disadvantage of the I/O is salt water, I never wanted to take it to the beach because the salt would destroy the risers.

Is HopSing missing a few teeth? Our Peanut only has a few left, I think he's had about a dozen pulled so far.2 of 4 showed up today, Crown & Paw pics, big guy is Domino our Cane Corso/ Lab mix, Hop-Sing on L Tilly on R,
