Well I hope it works for him, it is a cool looking boat!..I'm thinking about coming up, a friend of mine that has a K Boat wants me to  ride up with him!. Money's kinda tight and I want to get the GN going so I'll see what happens, the more I hear about it the more I'd like to go, but then again without my own toy it might not be that much fun, I don't know we'll see, I just may go anyways!.. :rolleyes
