Hey guys,

Just to give you an update, we drilled the stringers for the mounts and drilled the engine mounts this weekend. We got the engine dropped in and the drive stabbed. Gettin close !! I have some wiring to do, windshield, cabin doors, and upholstery and I am ready to blast off !! I forgot my camera this weekend, but I will post some pics soon. :boat::boat:

The Banana is safe and sound hugged up in my barn next to my Sutphen. We lucked out....not one piece of tin was misplaced on my shop.....I can't say the same for my trees.

Good deal, yah I know about trees, my last house in Palm Beach I lost half my nice tall 100 year old pine trees. Kinda hard to replace those :(
Let me know when you guys are coming to Travis.

Thank you. Not much progress on her lately. My brother (Trojan man ) is a little slow.:drink: We did put the engine in finally and let me just say, There isn't much room to wander with that blower on it....tight squeeze.

I believe he is waiting on a new windsheild and new cabin doors so we can complete the interior. We need to hurry up and get this stuff to complete the rigging around the dash and throttles since it will be worked into the interior scheme.

What did you guys ever do with that wrecked Superdonorboat?

See above.....HTRDLNCN bought it from Chad and took it to his place in Austin. I have no idea what is in store for it.

I bet that engine installation looks :cool::cool::cool:

I might have a windshield. The original one. Either it is on its way together with the boat or it is still in the States. You want me to have a closer check for it?
