Was just informed from the City that the new G3's 16" boats have arrived. They are being transferred to Barrett as you read.

Awesome!!! Thanks for the update. I'm sure people will like the new rides.

I wonder what they do with the old ones?

Excellent! Looking forward to it!

Happy New Year!!

SWEET!!

I suggested they might consider selling or giving them away, way too many issues with that.....its government. They will be re-cycled.

Think the boat prices will remain the same as last year’s?

Awesome, thanks Tommy! I am going to miss the one that leaked through the shotgun blast in the front

That is funny JWall.....the rates for Barrett will be the same for the next 2 years. They will be reviewed then with the possibility of a reduction.
LGF.......D

I'm surprised they don't put them into a city asset auction like they do with old police cruisers, seized assets and maintenance equipment. I guess they are pretty thrashed though. That being said, if they gotta load them on a trailer to take to the salvage yard anyway, why not take them to their liquidation lot?

Cool!

So are there plans to leave some of the older boats “as is” or all the older ones are to be replaced and gone?

That extra 2” length looks nice and more room especially for the guys that have the full load of four.
