MM,
Sailboats, Motor homes, Fast cars and hot tubs. All you need now is a few hot girls and a vacation in Hawaii. Hawaii is in the works only one thing left, a few hot gals to help you out on the Pacific. Mike you ROCK.

I use to live in Hawaii, went to U of H and worked on a Search/Rescue Team on the Big Island- ya, girls do seem to be a bit of an issue, with no actual (real) house, no life insurance (gee I wonder why they won't insure me?) and always being on the road (less traveled), the long term pickens are few and far between; oh well, every lifestyle has its down side. Just glad I work for some really cool folks who are willing to put up with my 'minor' personality flaws!

Mike,
I was a bartender at Mooses. 1990-1994 My wife went to UH. We have alot of family there still, so let us know if you need anything when you make port.

Rereading this post again after several previous reads, I am firmly convinced Mike that you are a virus infecting humanity, and I thank the deity(s) or universal force that when she created this virus, she made sure that there would never be an antidote or vaccine. Yes mommies and daddies can lock their children away and try and keep them from being exposed or infected but in every generation there have been enough of you out there to keep the bug alive. God’s speed.

MM,
Nice pics. So....your boat has an Oregon hull number. I didn't know we have a Tahoe up here in rain country.

Yep Don,
I purchased the boat in Costa Mesa, Calif. in Oct. 1995 then had it towed out of state (Las Vegas) to take delivery and registered in Oregon at my property address there. It really didn't matter where it was documented, although the trailer has a Nevada Plate (started with Florida), boat also has a USVI cruising sticker, likely will end up with Hawaii stickers next. It wasn't even in the states from 1997 through 2004. At one time it had Bonaire and Venz. stickers. Go figure-

Midget,
The boat is currently configured for the Hawaii crossing and as the outriggers were primarly used on rivers with rapids and strong eddy lines and when the boat is used as a live-a-board Currently, the pontoons are stored inside the walker bay tender along with a number of other items (like the 2 hp Yamaha use on it), which has been shrink wrapped for shipment to Hawaii. Once in Hawaii I'll have an opportunity to take some photo's as I also use the pontoons connected together with the 6 hp. engines and a 'tent cot' as a 'Expedition' overnight boat. Unfortunately, for now no pix as the pontoons don't related to open water crossings and would require a special project to photograph. Sorry- Mike
P.S. I believe there are some folks from the Tahoe area who have pix of the boat on the Lake with the pontoons connected- maybe they can post a couple?
