Were going to try. Went to the machine shop today and dropped off my old 427 pistons. Looks like we'll put the little motor back together. I'm kinda use to riding in the back of the pack in the crap water.

Why is there so much "crap" in the water? The guys in front of you that scared?  Huh?

Now that you ordered a new one, I'm sure a couple of used ones will come up for sale.

The T-tank is for the kids new Rogers, it wont be ready for quite awhile.
I'll still be running the orange one, you know the "family boat"

Well if nothing else, the seat is done!

Sorry for the blurry pic, I just barely taught Jim how to take and send pics with his phone, next week we'll work on focus and file size.

Jim's actually been working on the boat lately, he sent me some pics to prove it.
Here's some shots of all the work involved in getting your intake to sit at the angle you want it.
Jim told me the bottom of the boat is like 1.25" thick. He took out up to .6250" to make this happen.

Taco'd "a person or people that show up with one lake lice and a family of 50 and cram 3 people at a time on it with no disregard to boating rules or ethics. Usualy crap in toilets and throw shit paper in trash cans. Hang out at the boat ramp like its a swimming hole. Have zero insurance on anything they own and dont give two shits less about your property."
