Nope no parts yet, (boating season is over here anyways

) but... how much over budget was that scoop? I'm thinking it would look real nice on My Boat

Rob we sent the ext usps (probably a mistake) if it doesnt show PDQ let me know ,re the scoop it was 125.00 plus two "rattle cans" of rustoleum ,a little tape and decals (I gave them to me,lol) I made the rope guard today out of a old stainless cav plate rod and a turnbuckle (pics tommorow) other than that I'm very close to my 5k budget about 250 + or - ...Tom

building that boat and staying even remotly close to that budget is very impressive, now lets see the scoop on the boat and some video of it runnig

Remember when we visited that house I grew up in? San Antonio Lake is 45 minutes south of that house.

Marc,
Lake San Antonio is above Paso Robles in Central CA. About a 5 hour drive from the OC. 2 1/2 hours from Bakersfield. It is a beautiful lake. If you know where Lake Naciemento(sp) is then you know where LSA is. The family and I go a couple times a year. Hope this helps. Good Luck Tom!!!

So whats the final bill? I think I read somewhere that you were near or just over budget awhile back in this thread.

« **Reply #119 on:** October 18, 2007, 09:56:07 PM »

I think he was around $500 over when he started to make it look pretty . I never saw any numbers being posted in relation to what every item cost . Lookin bad ass Tom , pink and all !

Yea I think so to , but I bet he's a little over when it comes to the 70 mph goal too.
