Vic said she wasn't doing anything for NYE without me. Maybe if Maria called her and talked her into going, they could hang and habla some spanola at each other. Lol.

Oh, I thought she was with you.. Maria got a new phone and lost all her contacts. PM me Vic's number and I'll have Maria call her. We're going to Ken and Kyra's so she should be cool over there.

Ken knows how to get in touch of him.  Haven't seen him here in a while.

Cool.  Free is better than cheap.  I want tinted for mine though not black.

I believe Matt started a whole thread on that boat a while back, he even went to see it but the owner wasn't selling at the time. http://www.texashotboats.com/forums/index.php?topic=11239.0

I think his camera is a film camera. I'm sure several of us would like to come out on Sunday and check it out. I'll bring my camera.

I know what you mean about labor intensive. My hull is stripped bare right now waiting to get the new floor glassed in this afternoon.

Perfect!! I have a fairly decent digital camera and I can come out on Sunday and take a few snaps for you if you'd like. I live in McKinney but I keep the crusader at AAA Boat and RV storage just up the road about 3 miles from you in Princeton as it's very close to where I put in at all the time at Ticky Creek boat ramp.....

If we can get the Lexan at a bulk / discount rate, that would be great! I called your work and left a message on your work # voicemail yesterday.

Also.....you're more than welcome to use the commercial windshield bender I have to create a windshield for your sled.
