The Hydro QIV-X will give you the bow lift you need

So it begins again

I really thought hard about dropping it off in wade's driveway at midnight, just so she wouldn't feel so lonely.

I'm glad you didn't. That boat is too cool to have two 5" holes drilled in the sides.

This is probably what bigandys exhaust looks like in the back of the shop since no one has seen it in years

Fixing to go over to ATB and run it through and clean it up.

If it runs, it will probably be in the lake.

You know how the DR gets when there is a new toy in town.

Original name of the boat was Blue Thunder when Ross Perot owned it. Jerry McHutchins changed it to the Wildcatter. The guy I bought it from used to own Palmer power down in houston. He got is from McHutchins estate sale. He took it out a couple times last year. Leon took it out once for another customer before the winterization and said he broke 100.

Leon totally repowered the boat around 200-2001 when the new drives etc. were put in. Supposed to have around 20 or so hours on the drivetrain since the re power. Hour meters show 54 & 55.

Starboard battery shows to have charged last night. Charging port right now. Have to figure out how to get the hatch rams to open so we can get to the Perkos and then it's on.
