Aaaaaaalmost done. Full service (all fluids - oil, trans, drives) impellers, new spark plugs, all new filters and new fuel lines as the old ones were showing wear. Installed a cool onboard charger via shore power and got the LED Wip anchor light installed (aka disco show on the bow). Droppin' er in the water Thursday morning. Ready for this weekend and ready to hit the road to LOTO for the Cig Rendezvous, speaking of which, spy the Cigarette Rendezvous banner hanging on the wall my daughter bought at the PBC Cig Rendezvous a couple years back lol

Will you keep it at Havasu for Desert Storm before making the trip to LOTO?

it basically stays out there year round. Not doing desert storm but will be back in May for a quick trip. But yes, it’ll be out there until loto.

I’ve brought it home to so cal last two summers for a couple months but I have to store it outside and while I have a super nice full wrap cover it still gets really dirty. Drives me crazy. So, I’m just going to leave it indoors out there. If I want to run it this summer out here I’ll go grab it the weekend before. I’d like to just store it indoors here but they want $1500 a month for an indoor storage unit here. (Middle finger) uhhhh no. Lol

I have an extra covered slip in my dock (for a boat that doesn’t exist yet), you can store it there for free, I’ll run your boat on weekends I’m there you know just to make sure it’s running well each week for whenever you come. 😂

What is a LED whip anchor light? Is that like what the Jeep folks run on their bumpers?
