Pete, I don't know the priors on Das Boot, but i have been in and around that coach a few times. Nice coach and Robbie and Andre are great folks to deal with.

Anyone know of the prior owners of Das Boot - an 84 FC currently owned
by Robbie and Andre Skains of TX? They purchased it through Buddy Gregg
and think their were two PO's - one in NC and one in Houston area. Any
info or history will be appreciated.

TIA

Pete Goddu

Pete,

I think we sold our FC to some folks in North Carolina back in 1999. If you know their names, I could confirm some info for you.

I agree, they have been very good. I'll be there next week for a PDI
and am looking for any additional background I can find on the coach.

dont look too hard. In '86 LR Hubbard with 100 mill in the bank,
fulltimed in a near new Wanderlodge, the coroner called it a BlueBird
motorhome. Estate sale? maybe you will get luckey and find the PO was
LG Buchheim. I always wanted to find the origins of the name of my
Bus "This Po'boys Dream"

Hadn't heard that one before, but it was an interesting Google. Coroner's report
says it was an '82:

Sandwich??????Did the PO own a Sub Franchise or was it a play on being very rich and using the coach as a poorboy deal. Perhaps the PO could not afford a Prevost. Interesting anyway. Let us know what you find.

You rock. That's why Blockbuster's offering you one month of Blockbuster Total Access, No Cost.

Can't help with the info ... but each time we start out on a 'voyage' I think of early scenes in the Das Boot movie where bags of oranges, cabbages, salamis, and hams are all hung from every protrusion in the submarine. It feels much the same in our coach when we get underway. At least I don't have to worry about being depth charged.
