My boat is almost ready to rock and roll.
got the batteries in, topped off all fluids and the bad boy fired right up!

man o man it was a job putting on the drive shower. I had to remove the mounting bracket that bolts to the outdrive that connects to the mayfair hydraulic steering rams.

Then I had to drill two 3/4" holes through stainless steel and boy that was a JOB! I drilled two smaller pilot holes to make it easier and I'm glad I did. Then the mounting hole in the drive shower didn't line up right with the outdrive bolt hole, so I had to drill another hole in the top of the drive shower bracket...but it's on.

tomorrow: a new coupler for the electrical connector from the trailer to the truck and a coat of wax on the bad boy, put the carpet in and all the rest of the junk that has got to go on the boat.

I'm wiped....time for a drink!

Good to see someone getting out. The county's screwing with me again for having the boat on the driveway. I had to rent a post hole digger,because I have to now move my fence back aprox. 30 feet. Then I had to go rent a sod cutter,and cut out a area aboue 75 feet long by 18 feet wide. **** that was the easy part. Now I have got to roll up all that sod. Sucks.


Jeff,I think I would have traded jobs with you today
Oh, and I'm only half done. Then next week,I will have 18 yards of stone to be spread out. Wanna come help,I'll pay for the airline ticket:laugher:


Oh, and I still didn't have time to touch my boat.
