Sorry to hear about Boat, only got to watch him once, I remember handling Buzz against him at the little world a couple years ago. Those two hooked up and showed those wild swingin' dogs how to lock on a track and roll!! The good ones are never around long enough.

I'm awful sorry to hear about Boat, James.
He gave you a lot of fun over the years; he was certainly one to be proud of.

Even though he is gone he will not be forgotten! His blood runs through a many good hounds today and hopefully they will carry on some of what he accomplished. I have a grand Daughter to him I won't even price if that tells you what I think of her. I am very sorry for your loss.

Sorry to hear abour your loss, James. I can say that I know how it feels but I can't say till it happens to our Blue dog, then I might understand. He has meant the same to me. Just like what Matt said, Boat may be gone but oh those memories will last a lifetime.

Jimmy,
Showboat could lock on and run a rabbit about as smooth as any hound I ever saw. Sorry for your loss.
