    I'm guessing you've got a trailer, there's somebody at LOTO who hauls boats, he hauled mine down here the 1,400 miles here from Southern Missouri, that's a long haul from Arizona, let me know if you want his name, it won't be cheap, cheaper than a second boat though.

    Thanks Joey.....I would like his number.......I was thinking until I decided what to buy for Florida, we already own this boat and I have to pay storage for the winter in Havasu.

    Dougiebear tows boats from Havasu to all over the states. Not sure if he is on here. But he is on RDs.

    For what it's worth, we hauled our Formula down here and found out fairly fast that I/Os aren't the best for the type of boating you'll be doing down here, we're hauling our Formula back to LOTO early next Spring and getting some kind of performance CC with outboards, I think you'll quickly find out the same thing and you'll be selling your Eliminator or hauling it back out West too.

    The CCs are so much easier to maintain, more fuel efficient, easier to clean and operate in and around the islands with all the shallow water, I hope your Eliminator has closed cooling and fresh water flush outs or it's going to take even more abuse from the salt, if you guys get out this way and want to get out to see what I mean you're more than welcome to go out with us one day, I'll get Brian's info for you.
