Did you get the top half of the boat completely ready to paint before you flipped it and painted the bottom ? I was kinda thinking I would do the top and bottom in two sections on my TX like you did , above the rubrail and below the rubrail . I am just looking around and getting a game plan right now , but it seems like it would be best to get the top completely ready and then flip it to do the bottom .

Hopefully you didn't lose the property with the oil or the oil rights!!  Glad you got to keep the texican and the motor.  I can't afford to go through a divorce.

Well that sounds a little better than nothing now all you have to do is buy your house through a third party at a really low price and get a really good deal.  LOL
You got the right spirit though move on to better things.

Figured you would land on yer feet.  You should just get yerself a houseboat and park it in the middle of a lake then you have an excuse to drive the texican everyday.

Glad you didn't have to sell the boat or the motor, I know several people and I'm sure you do to that lost everything and had to start over.......at least it is in your rear view mirror.
