Re: Not pegged, but not bad!
I'm ready! I need to install the prefilters on the FloScan meters (Starboard is picking up some junk in the fuel and the gauge quits) and replace the hydraulic fitting for the PS. That's gonna be a PITA. My arms are too short to reach the fitting. I'm not gonna give up though. Then I'm ready.

3-4 oz of T over ice in a large frozen clear mug, two or 3 good chunks of lemon and run around the rim...fill the little remaining void with Seven. Got it down to a science.
Kevin, you get over this way we'll have to quench a relaxing day's thirst over a bottle of that fine Gin.
I do prefer it over Beefeater.

Re: Not pegged, but not bad!
Be careful, you keep talking like that and this may have to be moved over to the OSO Uncesored! I should be able to get over thay way sometime in Mid to Late August. We'll keep those relationships going!
Sounds like you got everything done on the boat. Now what?

Re: Not pegged, but not bad!
when you assemble more definitive plans to come over, call MaryEllen at Hutchinsons Boat Works in Alex Bay 315-482-9931. She can most likely hook you up with a transient slip in our boathouse. The more advance booking the better. It's a nice facility, good people. I've been there 15 years. 
go to the 1000 Islands forum, or Hutchinsons web site and check out the Hutchinsons River/Castle webcam. You can just see the end of the boathouse, to the right, over the travelift. 40 slips. Gas pumps out on the end. Full service Merc facility.
Easy two block walk to Downtown in one direction or the nieghborhood store in the other.

Re: Not pegged, but not bad!
Rippem,
Thanks for the info. I'll get with my wife and find some dates that work for us as well as the boathouse. Before I book it I'll see if you're available to meet up. As I mentioned previously, I really enjoyed that area in our little 19' Mastercraft, but was a little nervous in knowing I was in unfamiliar territory. Took it all the way to Boldt Castle (?) with 8 people in it
It's always nice to have a local there showing the ropes, as well as placing a face with a name. I'm sure that having a bigger boat this time will make the experience that much more enjoyable as well. I'll keep you posted.

Re: Not pegged, but not bad!
I have most of the month of August off.
More than happy to show you around. The area is really large, and some boating on Lake Ontario is a must.
