YEAH!! I LIKE IT!!

YEAAH! WOOO!!! ( guess I'm up till sunrise now ....) YEAH!!

I'm going to invent an anti EPA engine. The goal is to cause the most emissions & use more fuel than any engine in history. I want it to smoke like a heavily loaded mechanically injected diesel. I shall unfurl it at the earth day parade! :idea:

Over the past eight months we have been building several Limousine Tenders for large private yachts. The 34' epoxy-fiberglass tenders are powered with Volvo inline six cylinder 370hp. diesel inbord/outboards. The white hull limo-tender was just launched this past week and went through several days of sea trials. The boat will carry 12 passengers and 2 crew with a top speed of 36.5 knots (41.5mph). I will post several pics.....

Wow, nice! I'd be REAL happy with just the limo tender....and then you had to show the picture with the yacht in the background that makes the tender look like a little toy.....jeezzuz....talk about money.... :mad:

I was thinking the same thing. I thought we struck gold going for a ride in my dad's "little" 21' Sea Fox when he first bought it 2 years ago .... until we got on the water and looked around at all the bigger, better, faster boats all around. :lol:

I ain't complainin' - I've been riding in much worse on land without money to even fuel the piece of junk. Just the fact that my poor ass has even been in a boat, I'm thankful for that.

But I REALLY want to go on THAT boat!

Nice work Eddie - those things are MINT!!

So smitty, if this is your garage lemme ask you a question. Im not gonna bullshit ya I know nothing of amsoil. I have heard that it is a quality oil but why is it so much better to some people? Give me some knowledge if you can.

PC 12-47E · By: **PC 12-47E** On: Fri Sep 14, 2012 8:29 pm

Thanks for the kind words....We all have worked hard on the limo-tender prodjects.

I just wonder how much it would cost to replace the outdrive on one of tenders????

I can tell you one thing for sure Eddie - I CANNOT afford that prop! :funny:

The reason I trust them is because they back up their product with tests, white papers, etc.. and they ENCOURAGE you to send your own oil samples out for a lab test, either through them, or whoever. If the stuff is ruining your engine, the lab will pick up on it & tell you exactly what is failing, and why it's failing. If the lubricant sucks, they'll tell you that too.

When I first started selling the stuff, my brother bought a bunch of it for his Duramax. He's got it all tricked out, and it puts out around 600 ft.lbs. right to the ground. I told him he could run that oil for 15,000 miles ... and he didn't believe me ... so he sent a sample to a lab at 10k miles. They told him the oil looked (by "looked" I mean all the additives where there) just as good as any fresh oil does. They also found high levels of silica in the oil, which indicated his air filter was a piece of *censored*. Wouldn't have known that otherwise! 8-)

Here's some old iron I picked up this spring. I haven't had time this summer to work on it any, but I'm itching to get it on the road. Love those old Dodge trucks!
