I didn't like the underwater lines so I cut the sling and cancelled the contract he he he - besides the propellers fell off.... My boat WILL have lift points - each one (6) designed to hold the full weight...

That bath in a boat is a bit of a waste of a boat..... An ultimate expression of excess

Isn't that a riot? Seems the youngsters live on a houseboat, and didn't have room for a hot tub. They picked up the hull and the tub from ads on craigslist, so it sounds like a low-dollar project. Still kinda funny, I thought.
