    He hasn't been eating and now he seems to be laboring breathing and not really moving much :(

    yeah, went and looked at it today, got to drive it around grand lake o the cherokees a bit and it drove really well even on that HUGE lake with a bit of chop from the wind blowing and 45 degrees, it's small so my truck pulls it NP, even though it's a 08 sport trac it's just the v6 and the hills here suck enough even without an extra 1500lbs on the back, and the full windshield is nice to, was just wearin a sweatshirt today driving it around and being tucked up behind it when running around i didnt get cold at all

    I looked at around 15 boats overall and this was in the best shape of any of them for the price range i had to work with, and it's 95% lake ready, I need to figure out why the trailer lights on the passenger side quit working when they get wet (sure it's a short) and get the fish finder working or replaced and reinforce around the steering wheel, the old wood in the dash is really soft so it moves a bit to much for my comfort

    I did manage to talk them down on price also, got it for 1600 and it has a big enough live well to have a FOWLR and not be considered a nano lol

    i havent taken any yet, was dark by the time i got home from getting it off the lake, paid for, paperwork done, accessories bought and all that fun stuff

    will take some tomorrow so I have some before and afters since I'm planning on redoing the seats and parts of the floor also

    only plan on keeping it a year till the economy hopefully comes back up some, soon as i can land a good job again and credit becomes easier to attain i'm planning on something like an allumacraft deep v or mako or something
