so whats gonna happen???
somehow this saga beminds me of an old friend, my he R.I.P.
In about '82 or '83 I bought a new Sukuzi 1100GS. The friend I shared a house with and worked with had to have one too - bought an exact twin to mind. Well Jack was plenty wild and had very little riding experience. The guys at work created a "death pool" calendar where you could buy a square and pick the data Jack would first crash and burn. I almost won. I picked 10 days - he crashed and spent a few nights in the hospital after 9days.

I voted for it wont start. But the one I really want is: trailer takes a crap (bearing, lights, tires, winch, etc.) and boat never makes it to the water. Actually I hope he has fun with his ride. The guy however, should change his avatar to a Rapala. He does more trolling for thread content than an old retired guy in a little aluminum fishing boat. What's his birthday by the way? Age might give y'all a clue on what to expect down the road.

I didn't vote for any of the options. They're all a little mean. Even though I realize this thread is in fun there should have been an option that said "all goes well and he has a ball". Good luck, Arip.

Thanks my new Donzi buddys. I just woke up and am fixin to get my trailer registered, like new Loadmaster with new rubba. Is there a drain plug for my boat? If there is should I put it in before I launch it? I never launched a boat from a trailer before. I'm voting fore glug glug glug truck,trailer and boat :biggrin:

I agree.
I noticed he had a good time at MOP's expense about Phil's age and a Shamrock (I always thought Shamrock was a pretty good inboard fishing boat), but he didn't expose himself in the same way.
I bet he's a student at UT.
May be like that other guy.........

No photos yet - working on it. Paitence is a virtue, film @ 11, etc. etc.

This guy should get an award for big balls and friggen nuts. Have youy EVER heard of ANYONE buying a boat and not getting the keys. That new math ain't adding up so far. Oh and buy the way, Tacos are cheap.... About a buck each hear in the great white north. It's those damn yummy margaritas and steak fajitas that'll cost ya.

Holy efenheimer, another triplebarb trolling hook just went buy my head. Duck!

I say we cut this guy a little slack for a while. This stuff seems too amazing to be made up and his early posts seemed sincere. Aronowrip, you have doubters here and you should post pics and you shouldn't mess with other members here. Especially the ones with really high rep numbers. They have the power to eliminate you. Frankly I've found all this to be entertaining but if you really don't own a Donzi and are just fugging with us then you need to go away. I really hope that you do have a Donzi.:confused:

Is he a long time board member messing with everyone? Or is he for real......?

Carl C
05-25-2006, 10:21 PM
I think he's for real because of his early threads and questions of Mr. Aronow. Now that bayliner thread a while back is another story. Actually I guess they could both be scams.:confused:

HEY FELLERS! Just got back, What a hoot ride :biggrin: What else can I say?
Awesome ride & boat. I'm passing up **** on Lake Austin between 2-3000 RPMS left and right. Had to get used to these No Wake Zones. They are only no wake between the buoy and shore LOL. In S Fl. when you see a No Wake you throttle back. Lots of fun and I love the boat. Will try to post pics tomorrow.

ARIP rules. He's deliberately mixing things up. Check out the avatar for clues. I'd say the board is just getting"Punked".

NICE BOAT!!! It looks familiar to me also. At least you have good taste. I have the same boat. I am out of Clear Lake (Houston) but on Travis about 8 - 10 times a summer. I will be there Sunday and Monday. I wondered where Jim’s boat went. Congrats…

Your ISP gave you some space to host your pics.
But you don't have to use that here since Scot set up our own photo hosting.
A huge improvement over other sites that use third parties or Html code.
Put your photo on the desk top, just to make it easy to find, then in the browsing query, go to desk top to find and select the pic, pick that one to upload and attach. Its easier to do it than to explain it.

Try to cull the photo for us on dial up. I see way too much 300k sky.

One of those boats with that paint job came from St. Pete. It was for sale a while back over at the beach.
