    Tritoon

    1 / 1 2001 Lowe Suncruiser Jamaica 250 series $36,000 TRITOON! We purchased this boat just under 3 years, but it is a little too big for our comfort level (we’re pretty new to the boating experience). 27 foot long tri-toon. The boat has an upgraded Sony Bluetooth/ (Sirius ready) deck with upgraded speakers done by the previous owner. Sink galley/trash. Moveable center console. Stand table in back seating area. Comes with two towable inflatables, ropes, jackets, anchor, and all the basics to make it lake ready and turn key. In my own research, I learned that the owner prior to the one we bought it from repowered the boat. The prior owner repowered the tritoon with a chevy 350 instead of the factory honda v6. The boat will cruise at 35 mph. From our experience, a full day on the lake will use about a ½ tank of fuel (15 gallons). Plenty of power pulling an inflatable (have to be mindful of limiting the speed when pulling a tube). It does have a cover, that should be replaced. Theres a couple of tears in the center, but enough to keep the vinyl covered when parked. One cushion has a hole and another spot where the stitching is starting to separate (check pictures). Some of the vinyl is starting to get sunburnt, but still soft and supple. Dual bimini covers. One has been replaced. (theres a piece to connect the two, but I could never get the zippers to match… so we just used the straps to keep them up and tight when we used the boat. The back landing wasn’t covered by the cover, so the carpet went bad. I stripped the carpet and exposed wood, and decked it with a sheet schedule 80 pvc and topped it with rubberized roof coating to prevent further damage and provide traction when wet. Large sized sundeck (about queen sized), with a pop up changing room. ( we never used it but I et it up to check it out. Don’t know who to bring with boating? Bring everyone! This boat is rated for 17 people! Fun boat for the whole family. Prewired for a fish finder (sensor and mount are there, but I never put one back on there). Pull a tube, go fishing, or just cruise with the family. Tritoon floats across the water amazingly. 684 hours on the meter, not sure of individual hours on motor or when it was actually replaced (owner we purchased from didnt know of the motor upgrade as well). Hours may increase if I get the chance to take it out once more (especially for some “action shots”). $36,000 obo. Serious inquiries only please. (More pictures available)

    Looking for garage fridge or freezer

    same boat, not sure what your price range is... we bought 2 off of fb over the years and we just lost the 2nd one. Were kinda under the way of not buying someone else's junk. ha ha. We bought one for $50 and it lasted a few years (wasnt pretty when we got it),,, then the 2nd one for 75 and it lasted a bout 8 months. Might be worth the hassle, but Nellis auctions has them come through pretty regular. most of the fridges are brand new scratch and dent. They had one going for $60 (when i seen it) dont know what the auction ended at

    More auto related questions

    Ive had mine for coming up on 3 years... no emissions. When i finally had all the paperwork in hand and went to the dmv (with proof of classic ins) i "needled" the guy. I said, "ok, you as my representative to all things dmv related for this truck... what are the limitations of use for driving with a historic plate and collectors insurance?" he said, "oh we got nothing to do with any of that, that's on your insurance company." My ins broker set it up through Hagerty, and they never asked me about existing mileage or anything of the sort. i do not have a "garage kept" clause or anything like that. Its a lifted dually that wont fit in my garage, so thats good news for me. ha ha I got it towed once, and they never asked any information for any of that. ---- My brother's best friend in tucson has a square body, and pretty much the same thing. No garage on the house... and he said its "supposed to be" limited use, but they never asked him either. I know there is a different plate/category that is something like "parade use" for classic cars... and that has heavy restrictions on mileage

    The copper plate is dependent on your insurance... We bought the stepson an 88 bronco and put the copper plate on it... Came from outta county, so when i registered it to gilbert, it should have had emissions. 3 years in, i got the notice that tags were due. Waited my turn in line at dmv to ask. #1 it had a copper plate, #2 if emissions were due it should have been A- coming into county and B- more than the 3 years we had it. The guy was like "Uh, i dunno, but you need emssions... its based off your insurance" I won an 83 Ford f350 in vegas... 3 trips prior to getting it home to the dmv. Each person gave a different answer to my question (how do i get temporary plating; each person asked for different information). Ran outta time, opted to chance it...but got insurance set up through hagerty. went back to dmv after i had the truck in hand and they didnt ask for anyhing. Classic insurance is the key, but my agent said theres no way they would give me classic insurance with him as a primary (for either). Then it was simply 1 year or 5 year tags.

    Young Man Training- Want to rope a calf

    Well, thats super cool to get kids back into things like this... I dont know of any, but if you're not to worried about asking in person... I know there's a xouple of places out in coolidge that you could stop by and knock on the door to see if they would be willing to set something up. I know some of the arenas have team roping and such on the weekends. (non competition, just like minded people hanging out). on the north end of coolidge https://www.lonestarequestrian.com/ between coolidge and I-10 (highway 87 and Houser) Top Hand tack shop +15055159048 (there's always guy out there cutting cows and roping when i go out to 37a for Javelina)

    What keeps you from going?

    Marriage! its a trap, dont fall for it. Just kidding. I did get married later in life (mid 30s), then the kid/family/time obligations went through the roof. Took the step son out a few times, but never really took hold for him. In the beginning there was a lot of questionable conversations of "it's not your tag, but you still have to go?" lol. The new life goal is Starlink, then we can both go not that the kids are older and starting to be more independent. (she can work while im out, then spend time around the campfire)

    Flatline Maps / Can't Reach Them

    if you cant get them, rugged maps are pretty cool. I know you wanna stock up for your store. but that might be an easy alternative. look for the videos of the stuff online. they use what i describe as a "table cloth" material. One video, the guy uses it for putting meat on after he got his elk. then it washes off and hangs it to dry then packs it away
