Have a safe trip, and in a few years I will look forward to seeing you Robert!

I’ve worked a lot on the boat lately guys but the only visible progress is all the transmission bolts being in place. But it’s tough work in the summertime. I spent nine hours in the engine compartment and on the forklift. Lots of climbing around and I am sore today 😂

The boys thought it was funny when they put “Elvis” on my deck.

Ummm, am I the only one noticing the AC units! That deck is not a storage shelf.
Looking good, keep up the great work.

Any horizontal plane will eventually gather stuff

That's a 170 buck a/c unit from wal mart to blow down the hatch on my wiring guy thank you very much.

Anybody can do it with enough time and motivation.

Got a fair amount done today. All 40 engine/transmission to bracket and stringer bolts are all waterproofed and tightened. Hallelujah. 😂 I sacrificed blood and sweat but so far no tears.

Also got the port side trim and plane hoses mounted as well as most of the heavy gauge wire in place. Ive mounted my battery switches as high as I can on the bulkhead. I’ve mounted the hoses and wires on the outside of the outer stringers so the engine compartment looks cleaner.

Also clearcoated the sea strainer lenses, they were scratched up somewhat.











Hope to get the wiring finished up in the engine compartment tomorrow.

Is that dust I can see, from drilling holes…..?
Now you’ll have to pull everything out and start all over again!





P.S. I’m lovin’ this thread. Thanks for taking the time to keep it updated. I think all your followers owe you a few beers. 🙂
