If you're really secure in your marriage you can always ask for forgiveness instead of permission. I've finished many a project that way 😳.

Im a big enthusiast of this method and pretty much every project i have had or still have is funded by this method and believe it or not never once has my wife ever given me a hard time and i have never lied about how much i spend on anything. If you ask my wife she will confirm this but i do what want and spend my money on what i want. I wont ask for permission or go through the hassle of trying to convince her or beg for mercy. Now i havent been married as long as GT or as long at most here, going on 6 years now so that means either I have an amazing wife which i do OR i havent screwed up to the point where shes had to put me on such a short leash and put the bank account on lock down.

But the key to my success soley is.....dont spend it if you aint got it, credit cards are a no go on projects, constant spending on a project brings to much attention, spread out the cash dumping and use cash as often as you can on big pirchases. They cant trace cash..... i said i never lied about how much i spend which she can check with online banking or by finding reciepts. I never said anything about volunteering information, once its been in the garage for 24hrs i have always had it or im just holding onto it for someone.

Funny thread now. Wasn't this about finding a reasonable price on a pump? 😆 Just the reality of building a boat and staying [happily] married...

We could start a boat builders anonymous group right here.

My name's Dave and I own a jet boat. 

It's very common for threads to make a left turn.

Alright ill spell it out for you, being happily married is like street magic.....its all slide of hand and distractions.

Now you want to build a reasonable priced pump. Good luck, we have all heard it, good fast and cheap, pick two cuse you aint gonna get em all unless your gt and can build your own crap......
1.buy a complete spare pump wait out for a good deal on craigslist. Easy to hide.
2. Start building that stash cash.
3. Drop said pump off to have build. Intake milled and set up for shoe and ride plate.
4. Tell wife boats having issues and you gonna take it in to have it looked at.
5. So now you pay for pump build  and machine work with cash and pay for installation and set back with card.
6. Dont slip up and get caught, hide cash reciept and enjoy.


Now this may take a while depending your abilities to save but if you play your cards right you should be set up come next season.

AND THE MOST IMPORTANT TIP OF ALL OF THIS!!!! dont let her see this thread or your screwed from the begining and just digging your own grave.
