Sweet!

[Tequila-John]

SH-T thats a great idea... Looks clean too.

[riverbound]

Wouldnt it shake the keg up quite a bit and cause the beer to be foamy??

[deltarat]

Why no officer, I haven't had anything to drink all day.
That thing has DUI written all over it.

[Froggystyle]

I have a spot for one of those if someone wanted one... ;)
I am working on the "margarita pump" right now though... :D

[Jyruiz]

That thing has DUI written all over it.
First thing that came to my mind.

[FREIND OF AA AND TA]

Looks like an Evolution Pontoon me. Not that it makes a difference, just another reason I will have a pontoon. Crap another $2000 dollar option :cry:

The trick is, you can't drink. I don't drink at all on the water, and because of our trash-hauling capabilities I generally end up taking a huge percentage of the trash off the sandbar at the end of the day. We hang our recepticle over the side, and people just drop cans in all day. Basically, it looks like we have been boozing it up for a month on board, but I am totally sober so who cares?
I don't know about the tap, but the margarita pumper has some merit to me... :D

Im puttin my vote in for the Margarita Pump. Will it be color matched to the gel coat? :idea:

[Hardly Satisfied]

[deltarat]

I'll tap the girl and then finish drinking the beer! :)

[RitcheyRch]

That works for me.
...or just tap the girl. :crossx:

Let me know if you have any questions...

[desertbird]

A GARBAGE DISPOSAL!?!?!? BRILLIANT!
I've been making Margaritas in a 5 gallon container for years. We take it camping, use it for parties and have even been asked to make a batch and bring them to a few parties.
The only problem is that we have to drink them "on the rocks" (ok with me) but there is always the group that wants them blended.
I hope you don't mind if I make one of these for myself. What did you use? 1/2 horse? 1/3 horse? Does it work as good as it looks?
Once again....brilliant. I am thoroughly impressed! :cool:

According to some people on the internet, 1/2 HP will do it, I bucked up and bought this one from Home Depot, it's the "In Sink Erator" Model 777 SS. It's the largest one that they sell, a full 1 Horse Power!!! It has no problem with ice, and pumps at about 20-30 psi on the recirculation line. It retailed at $199, but it was on sale for $159, and I had a gift card for like $100 from work, so $60 out of pocket on that was the way to go for me. You have to cut the rubber flaps out of the drain part so that the mix will enter the disposal easier, and pointing the recirc line back into the drain helped also. Once you get the mix down, you run it until you have a good slush, then only bump it once in a while to stir it up. I always turn it off when I'm pouring or else you have to be real quick with the valve! All the piping is 1" and the spout is 1/2", you need to use a caulder style coupling to adapt from the pvc drain fitting on the disposal to the 1". I have seen others that ran the recirculation line outside and just cut a slot in the lid, I used a "bulkhead fitting" that I got from a plastics/sprinkler store, that allowed me to go through the jug where the original spout was.

Homedepot has that same model 777 disposer on sale for $89 bucks. Hmmm maybe a home depot trip tonight :rollside:

Great Post....one more reason to be on ***boat..thanks

Just make sure it's the SS model, that means all components are stainless steel.......nobody likes rust flakes in their margarita.
Labor Day, my wife informed me that it's going to be performing as the "Mudslide Machine".....I guess that she's getting tired of Jose'.

[RitcheyRch]

Same here and agree, that thing is awesome. You should fab a few and sell them.

Two things come to mind..... ONE: A hundred gallon cooler full of beer is not an invite for a BUI ??????
TWO: While your down there....... :)

Is it powered simply by a 12V converter, ran thru a cigarette adapter?
Ah hell, who am I foolin', I could never make one of those, just tell me where you'll be on Labor Day. :)
