Hi Tvacek, naw, your humor is fine!

It's just that I do have some friends that see things and believe they're true because someone said they did it or has it...

Let's just say, you know your in trouble when some of your friends believed "The Fast & Furious" was very realistic......

See ya at the finish line,
WetWilly

    Just to update everyone, I have agreed to pickup Tvacek's boat and trailer in Maryland and meet him at the Indiana border. He is borrowing a 3/4ton Dodge Diesel for hauling back to Omaha.

    I'm doing the majority of the haul on Thursday, and meeting him on Friday. Everybody keep your fingers crossed for both of us!

    Good luck to both of you. I sure Tvacek appreciates the help.

    I said it before and I will say it again. This is a perfect example of what this site is all about.

    Can we change Chris' title to "SUPER Admin and Mariah fanatic"???

    Seriously... good luck. What a nice gesture!

    Im in for the water test. We need to make sure it's sea worthy for Tvacek.

    Also I will bring the beer.

    Absolutely! Now that the ice has finally left the lakes...

    Wow Chris, what a super nice gesture on your part. Hope it all goes smoothly.

    Hey all, sorry I haven't checked the forum here in a few days.

    Yes, ShabahZ250 has been extremely generous by offering to meet me approx. half way. This takes a tremendous weight off of my shoulders - - now I'm looking forward to the trip, rather than dreading it!

    I just want to thank you all again for your helpful insight. Honestly, without your suggestions I may have tried to pull this monster with my sissy-tahoe across the country, jeopardizing my safety and others around me.

    Now I'm able to think about more important things - like what to name her....any suggestions???

    I'll be sure to post pictures as soon as I get back. Thank you all again, what a great way to start my tenure as a Mariah Owner!
