Default Had a great helper in garage last night

One of my girls came out last night (they always are in the garage with me) and was helping me rebuild the raw water pump and we needed to take a break midway for a story.

I have included all 3 of my girls in the build of this boat since day one with cleaning it. They can't wait for summer.

I can certainly appreciate this. My girl is 3 and enjoy having her around helping
Sure, progress can be slower, but it's these minutes that I want more of

The motor is right behind us and before we started on the pump we were going over motor parts like spark plugs and valve covers. Can't start them too young LOL

Having two daughters I can really appreciate this thread. When approaching a dock or another boat to tie off everyone knows these two are the only ones certified on my boat to take care of things properly. Seems like every swinging dick that's between the ages of 16 and 20 that might come along has something to prove and wants to help. They're quickly told to sit on their hands and watch while the girls take care of everything.
