I moved my boat from my front yard back to the lake. As much rain as we have had it still is way down, plus it is still frozen. I was not sure we even had enough gold weather to freeze it over.

On the trip up I noticed I have a break dragging. It was a 30 minute trip and the brake drum was to hot to touch on the left side. Looks like I will be pulling the drum as soon as it gets warmer.


Nice and shinny, you can even see the lakes reflection

Mast step is rebuilt and looks much better then it did. I hope it does not leak.

Image

Since I pulled all the wiring and ran new I also designed my own fush panel.

New bow roller setup with horn. Need the horn for the power boaters that tend to cut line at the dock. Still need to put the chain pipe in.

Image

Still have to trim the extra sealant. Much stronger then before.

Oops, I am glad my left over awlgrip matches my truck. I will be needing it.

Next I plan on tearing down my Johnson 9.9 and rebuilding and repainting it. I also need to paint the mast. Got to wait for it to get warmer for that too!

Thanks guys. It looks better then I thought it would. It was hard to see in the storeall.

I would have put her in the water today if it was not frozen over. Spring will not be here soon enough.

I have enough awlgrip left over to paint another boat or two.
