A friend's Tarpon 140 for sale on CL. He did a real nice job on his electric motor mod and his boat is in great shape. He's not really suited for a kayak pace and wants to move up to a PB.

Wow! Sherm, your friend did it right. That's better than factory quality installation.
As of July 12th, I am, officially,  retired.

Do you think you could convince your friend to trade their kayak for my quad atv? :-)

Great looking yak setup, right there!

I don't know - how fast is it? I told you he's not really cut out for kayak speeds...

I've never clocked it, but goes fast enough to scare me on flat sand :-) it's a sport quad, I have an add here in the classified to trade/sell for a yak.

Passed it on HotWheels but he said his wife would kill him even if the quad didn't. As an aside, this guy and I shared the cost of renting an Odyssey at a buddy's beach bachelor party years ago - he busted up two of them and cost me some extra $$ that weekend...
