A cursory search disclosed a 65 foot steel offshore lobster. I don't
think it's very Zimmerman like. Maybe longliner like. I am going to
imagine I wrote a check for the 200 000. If I lived in Maine, not
Iowa, I really would buy a fair sized lobster. Find some guys and send
them out on shares. There is a 20 footer for sale for $7500, but that
is a bit small. On a slightly related note, there is a used 19 foot
Boston Whaler for 35 000. An outboard. Those people are obviously
nuts. Buys like my two grand 22 foot aluminum sterndrive are not
particularly scarce. There are going to be a bunch of unemployed boat
owners. Maybe even an affordable 35 foot Zimmerman like Lobster. Or
ask Zimmerman to build a lobster like yacht. Whatever.

On drugs, eh?

On another note, I'm sure an experienced Iowa lake boater would have an
easy time of it out on the Atlantic off the coast of Maine. For about
five minutes. Then...they'd be searching for your body.

You never know. He seems to be in the process of liquidating his assets.
The LT boat will probably be offered up soon.

If you are referring to me, you're, as usual, wrong. I'm merely clearing
out some of the old for some of the new. I'm not a pack rat. I always
sell my desktop computers after a year or two.

As for boats, at least I would have a couple to sell, if I were so
inclined. You are boatless.

As a point of information, I am indeed looking at a new boat, and if I
decide to go ahead, I would be selling the other boats, but for the canoe.

I'm sure if you pooled your resources with some of the other "done
nothing in life" types here, you'd have enough to buy a new rubber
ducky, eh?

What part of send some guys out on shares didn't you read, dip****.
Lobster, or any other, commercial fishing is far too much work.

You were doing so well up to your last sentence, where you completely
disintegrated into a puddle of poo. Sad to see that happening.

I hate to be the one that breaks this to you, but offshore lobstering
isn't like offshore swordfishing. Most lobster fishermen own and run
their own boats, or, if they own a small fleet, the other others are run
by relatives or close friends. Further, these smaller commercial fishing
craft sent out entirely on "shares" typically are owned by experience
lobstermen.

It's a bit out of the experience realm of an Iowa boater. Perhaps you
should consider running for the governor's mansion in Alaska, where you
apparently don't need to know anything.

Ahhh...your Navy pension provides enough so that you could buy your own
rubber ducky? Good for you.

I'm not an expert on this, but aren't you letting your sentences run on
a bit? Also your punctuation stinks.

Prices on imaginary boats are all over the place this year. Bargain
hard and keep looking for the right one. It's out there, limited
only by your, errrr, imagination. :-)
