Keys, here we come!!!
 
I've got Clarkstar flying in Thursday for the Boat Show PR. I'm driving, he's saving us.....

Any other AT people up for the trip? Even if you don't have a boat and are in town, we've got room!

boatfreak 02-16-2009 07:42 PM

Great news.
We will be there waiting on you with a beer in hand.:drink:

SHORTFUSE 02-16-2009 09:00 PM

I'll be in Thursday afternoon...& I'll have a present for you. I should have room for people if necessary...if they don't mind being in the smallest boat

Well, it's last minute...and I probably can't go, but what are the dates and where are you staying?

I'll try but judging by last night's practice round there might not be any beer left in South Florida by the time you get here.:drink:

You guys have fun on the Run. I hope the weather is as nice as it was for the show last week. :ernaehrung004:

I've never had a complaint!!:drink: Saw your boat at the factory on the 3rd. Looks good, how does she run?

They made it and they are on the Freeze Frame site in the photos of fun run section.

Some bunch of drunks called me up last night. They were all doing impressions of fellow AT owners. :D :D

It was a great run and we are on the way back home. We are sitting in Northern Florida for the night as it is too cold to go farther. You guys may remember that I don't winterize and store in a heated shop so I guess we will just stay here and travel after the sun comes up. Yes I had some trouble but I don't know just how bad it is. I will pull things apart when I get home and will let you know. It is an engine but like I said I will know more later so I will just leave it at that.
Did I mention that we had a blast. :ernaehrung004:

Mike,

You won't freeze anything in the short amount of time it will take you to get home.

Hope the engine thing is minor.

Did I mention I was very jealous that I couldn't go?

I think you are right but It is going down to 13 tonight and I couldn't make it home till 4 if I drive straight through and I'm not in a hurry anyway.

Sydwayz 02-23-2009 07:48 PM

Heard about the motor tonight Mike. I hope its something simple.

As for Clark... how's the plumbing? :D

Hey, hey, hey.....it coulda worked! :evilb:

ActiveThunder 02-23-2009 08:14 PM

And I almost forgot, where's the sea-strainer wrench???

I mean in all of the other obvious places you would keep it.

Again?

chuckbeecher 02-23-2009 09:51 PM

I understand same engine..same header..same hose.
What gives??
never the other side.
I have never seen other thunders or even other brands that have to stop so often because of seagrass in the strainers and the temps rising. again why the same engine ..why not both??
I do believe until it can be solved I would carry a gross or two of those hose/fittings.

She runs great. It's a dream to own...always thinking about going bigger, I can see a 33 in the future. I would love to own both but then reality check sets in.

R Addiction 02-24-2009 09:37 PM

Rode in Remedy a few times, Runs awesome. :cool:

I've got an awesome set of tools. :D

boatfreak 02-26-2009 07:45 PM

I guess I could add another valve in that third hole above the #8 piston and a little jb weld should fix the piston.

If there is a bright side, I will be broke to the point I won't be able to use the dam thing but I'm going to have a pair of incredible mills when we get done.

Been there, done that. That sucks Mike.

Look on the bright side, R'addiction can help out....
