Given your luck with Triumphs, I'd pass if I were you.

What's the salesman's name for this honey? Does he have any relatives in the car business in Bayamon? If so, run as fast as you can............

<span style="color: #990000">Luck??? Paul !!!

We all know my luck at boating/fishing!
A Triumph boat would be no different.

It's a matter of maintenance and proper care.
I had my first custom boat built in 1984.
That's 24 years ago and I know for a fact
that boat is still fishing the Chesapeake bay.

I've got a Mako, why trade down??

Might drive Crypty today when it stops raining.

Yer car is looking ever so fine.

I'm sure it still is and I know of your prowess as a fisherman.

But was that boat a Triumph?

He actually owned over half of the bay. Sold it to move to PR and invest in British sports cars.

Tinster, did you live in Maryland? That's my old
stomping grounds.

<span style="color: #660000">Yupper, Steve, I did indeed.
26 years in MD and 19 years and counting in PR.

Spoken quietly.......I like PR a whole lot better!!
Better fishing, better beach babes, 12 months of driving.

I like that Triumph! Looks fun. I say buy it.

I can't see anything fishy about that boat...or not yet, at least,
huh Dale?

Just don't change the oil in the garage.


<span style="color: #990000">You know, Don-

It's really kinda odd. My boat has a super high tech,
state-of-the- art outboard engine. I take it to the
dealer for ALL engine maintenance. I pay $130 for
oil change, full tune up, new filters, computer checkup
the works.

I can have a complete Mercury tune up in less time
than it took me to change the Triumph's oil and clean
up the mess I made. And that's with no filter inside the canister.
