What did you do to your boat today?

Found a spark plug wire that was just loose in the boot, so that got crimped back on. Did a bolt check and put the batteries on the charger.

We'll be heading out late Thursday and hopefully finish tuning early Friday on the water.

Changed the oil.
Replaced the belt.
Was going to replace the water pump gasket, but found that the bolts were just really loose.
Checked the spark plugs.
Put the charged up battery back in.

Then noticed, HOLY SHIT :banghead:, a freeze plug was sitting under the pan.  So bought some new plugs and now just praying nothing is cracked. :sly:

Finally got around to buying new manifold gaskets and the 2-1/2" 3 bolt exh flange kit that fits my weird Nicson logs so I can have the muffler shop weld them to my OT pipes...  Once I get the exhaust completed then I can get the water lines run and my baby should fire...  HOPEFULLY  lol
