well the mighty rust bucket is pulling away frome the pier and heding to japan after a week of delays. we are heading out just in time to get raped by 2 typhones so its going to be a very bumpy ride. we pull in to japan on the day both of them converge on japan, werd timing. alredy preparing to get smacked in the head by all those things you never rember to tie down, just pray we dont go dead in the watter.

[ShadowRWolf]

yay the tub of bolts calld AS-40 made it to japan with out exploding sinking oe ever go dead in the watter witch we alwase seem to do.... even made it with 1 of 3 fule/oil pumps working.

got in last night and checked my email got a responce the price is set at 1k we will not be able to meet up face to face so we are deling thrue the marina hes going to leve the papers with the marina and im going to show the marina the check for the 1k and put it in there mail box.

thats bout it for now. chilling in japan for 9 days then heded down to singapor or how ever you spell that. hopefully if we dont sink explode or go dead in the watter we will be back home in guam by the end of october just in time for dry sezon. perfect time to haull out and work on the boat.

Shadow - What's your schedule in Singapore? If you get off the boat, I'd be glad to buy you a beer at our club.

Are you going into Sembawang? If so you'll pass right by my boat. I might even be bribed to help blow a boiler and give you a vacation here - LOL...

Oh wait - maybe it's a secret where you are going. Navy hush hush and all that....

[ShadowRWolf]

lol oo yes super secret dont know exzact but were leving here on the 25th and we will be crossing the line at some point during oure cruse over there dont know whare we will pull in at hase to be a big port if you look up my tub o bolts AS-40 its a wee bit big. probobly a shiping port or something along those lines. havent been out there before. il ask around the more seinior pplz to finde out whare were pulling in at. if i cant figure it out we are reoly hard to miss big, rusty, and gray with some cranes on top

Shadow,
I like the deal you made, and think it will give you lots of pleasure. I wish my first boat was that nice. I basically bought a good hull, that's it. I enjoyed all of the hours I put into replacing things and trying to figure out how things worked. They say you should know your boat inside and out, for sure you will get that oppurtunity just like I did.

Good luck and keep us posted.

Shadow - Although I now suspect your morals as being too high for not drinking I suppose I can raise my standards a bit and buy you a Coke or at least a Ginger Ale - LOL.

Your bucket o' bolts might be big but we get a few biggies by from time to time...

[ShadowRWolf]

ya those beasts out size us by a bit
Coke sounds good lol

She has a nice shape. What is she? She needs some work, but she's yours - not the bank's. One of my boats had a family of raccoons living on it when I got it. It was full of water & raccoon crap. I wouldn't let my wife see it for the first two weeks. Get a gallon of Clorox Cleanup & some paper towels, some gloves, and an outboard motor. Scrub her up & go sailing.

Yeah. But what works on Racoon crap! LOL.

Jeez - I'd rather clean oil way more than any kind of animal crap - LOL.

See how lucky you are Shadow?

[psteele235]

Racoon crap? Send him to Changi jail! (I lived in Singapore in the 70's when Bugis Street was alive and the food stalls in the car parks were everwywhere).
