PM Nordie

he has a set he's trying to sell CHEAP!

Ray

NaH! You'll get it done in time!

Decided to help you out and started finish sanding it today when I got home so you'd have a head start..........................





Ray

I guess I did have a case of "wire"rhea...hehhooo ha

Holy shit! I thought I was bad 

To add to this, more often than not, white (blanco) can be used in place of black (negro) for grounds...Also, sometimes the start circuit wire will be yellow only before and yellow with a red tracer after the safety switch...

Definately ditch the ammeter, but, there is a wiring change that needs to be made at the engine if you go that way. the orange wire and the red wire get tied together at the engine/alternator, which gives you two "hot" wires to the dash

Sometimes you need more than one bilge blower............My old boat had four

Bilge blowers are needed for "air changes" the bigger the bilge, the more CFM needed....

I would Agree with these guys and LISTEN!, but then, I've been on the bad side of piss poor wiring (Possibly). Don't make me post the pic again as an illustration of the potential results of skimping here!

Ray

ss piano hinge and make an access door maybe

X2 Steve, But I'd use a pair of hidden (Invisible) cabinet door hinges on each side.

Don't mind me, just trying to fathom what you got there so far and where you're going with it, (my minds on 4 different boats right now). Might have another idea for you when I think about it! lol.

Ray

X3.

My 14 year old son (Driving my old Beezer that burned and sank) Chewed a guys ass off at Bartlett Lake for cutting him off (I guess pretty blatently) sounds something like what you describe happened. (Guy was pulling a tube and was oblivious to what was going on around him)

RJ was smart enough to know that if you drop the reverse bucket and stand on it, the boat WILL stop and damn near immediately! I rolled in to see this guy standing on his swim deck of his like 26' Bayliner 20feet away screaming at my son (My son started the screaming match, not unfounded,  I found out later, (My boy, call the fokker out! couldn't be prouder!)) When I rolled in, My 90 pound son was standing on the drivers seat and all I heard from him was " Oh Yeah cumcatcher?, come on over here and I'll tear you a few new assholes retard") Direct Quote as I recall.

I Immediately tied off to the ol' Beezer and climbed outta the Moo onto the Beezer deck ready to swim over and beat the guy to death (I'm a little guy but I was pissed) when he sped away.

We have to wonder why licensing is not required on waterways............I Still don't know exactly what happened, but 3 of my friends were in the boat when it did and said they were there to back RJ up. One said he was gonna address it but RJ said let me handle this...  I'm so proud......)

I've done stupid newbie stuff, Keith, Nordie and Terry can attest, we all have. But own up to them. Sounds to me like a bunch of stupid errors here that ended someones life. We're smarter than that. I can very be proud that my son is not only aware of what he's doing and being polite, cosiderate, and giving wide berth driving a boat, but he's aware of what every other idiot is doing around him, and watching the wakes.

(How many of US know that by lifting, drop the reverse bucket, and stand on it, the boat will stop nearly within it's own length??)
Had my son not known that, and I was not around, nor was anyone else in the boat familiar with protocol or jet boats at all, I guess the Bayliner woulda been cut in half basically.

Sorry to hear about the man who lost his life in that little "infraction". But it sounds to me like the operator of the boat that was hit didn't know what the hell was going on and simply reacted. The driver of the boat that was HIT though will have to reconcile that with himself that he did nothing wrong. And he did nothing wrong!

Ray

Ask Brad when he get's offa Jen, and gets back from the honeymoon, not a bad idea!

Reminds me, Need to order more shirts anyway, "Guests" keep stealing them!

Ray

Up is the top side of the map, right? Other than that, you're right!

But my Dizzies are all on the front! (Even the Stealth project is!)  

Ray

I think that's Josh's tail

(Don't ask how I know that.............................)

Ray

Oh and it gets better, Jeremy, can I share all the pics? lol

Ray

I just realized your location says "Just south of Beerjet"

Do you realize what that might infer???

Ray

I'll be up there in 2 weeks, we'll see if we can get it. Anyone wanna come bring my spare trailer along??? lol.

Ray

hate hearing about stuff like that!

Yeah it is! Always sad to hear of someone losing their life just having a little fun.

Ray

Cali side of what? (Didn't see it anyway, but thought that MIGHT be an important piece of information?)
