    Yeah, that would be another $60-$80k doable but “only” $11k for a bow thruster instead.

    Yeah, that is Lola, our water dog, we rescued her from a shelter after she was abused by some arsehole who beat her and put out cigarettes on her coat when she was a puppy.:mad:
    She likes her new home for sure, happy doggie she is.
    (The picture was from 5 years ago while Lola was riding on the Cobia, River Rat # 4, she loved the canal cruises in Fort Lauderdale)

    In Fort Lauderdale when we lived on the waterfront Lola was guarding the dock and the boats:
    In this case a big fat iguana ran down the seawall chased by Lola to escape, the poor Iguana jumped on my boat and tried to hide behind a chair.
    Lola chased the poor creature, grabbed him in the mouth and jumped of the boat and onto the dock, a 3-5 foot jump with a 4-5 kilo reptile in her mouth, then she killed it on the seawall and started eating the poor thing. I stopped it right there and lowered the iguana with lead weights to the bottom of the canal for the crabs to feed on. Like a mafia kill.:(
