Summer is over, Good time,s not forgotten. The ol'233s in the shop, The transom is rotten. Some say she,s like an old horse,and I should put down. But her engine still rours,and her keel is sound. So I'll spend two grand and wipe my tears.And let her give Bayliner the BIRD for thirty more years!:'(
 
I rather spend two grand on a boat you know and trust than buying unknown and spending more, best of luck on the project.

I agree with you, I sat on the boat by myself today and was sad to think the summer is over so quickly. :(
 
I dont blame you for fixing her. These old Formula boats are hard to beat. They are better built than a lot of the newer boats. Post some pics of your old bird I would like to see it.

Good luck on the project. Nice to see your saving her. I also got a tad sad yesterday while we were anchored and had the seadoo out. I realized this will be the last seadoo weekend since it is starting to get cool. Man does summer fly by. Oh well, still have a month to go.
