hhc1stidf Posted July 4, 2009 Author Share #21 Posted July 4, 2009 Does any of it need a new home? Man some guys have all the luck. Best part! I paid $160.00 for the whole lot. A good buddy of mine offered me double. I said no thanks. When I purchased this lot I only thought there was one Mae West. A competitor was walking towards me at the time so I ripped the money from my wallet and the seller didn't have ten dollars in change as he was asking $150.00. I didn't care. Keep the ten, I thought. The friend who offered me double my money showed up and he had his wife drive the new find up to my vehicle and then I discovered that there were five Mae Wests. This was in the spring military vehicle meet at Tower Park Marina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hhc1stidf Posted July 4, 2009 Author Share #23 Posted July 4, 2009 Very nice find..congrats..I would bet money that raft holds air. :thumbsup: I think so, when I rolled the raft up to put in the bag it trapped air and I had to let the air escape in order to roll it tight enough.
