Re: Who would let this happen!?
Just pulled back into town. We've been hammering Tim's new Duramax for the past 7 days 
Man, what a great tow rig!
Tank, no my 'Gun is not for sale. Every now and then I think about upgrading to a newer ride but we've got my old girl dialed in so good that to replace it with a newer boat (that would be as reliable) would be way more $$$ than I could ever throw at this foolish hobby
We dropped the boat at the shop and we are very pumped to re-rig this neglected '92 Top Gun. It is going to make a real fun winter project!

Hey you gearheads! You know how it is when you get a new project?
We pulled the motors and de-rigged the engine compartment Sunday afternoon.
Monday the upholstery man stopped by to order material. He is starting on the cabin tomorrow.
Today the 'ol dirty Top Gun went out to get scrubbed from top to bottom. Man, what a difference a good scrubbing does.
After a good look at everything, it seems that this boat has not been ridden too hard. The hull is in great shape, had mild power, TRS drives and cable steering. With that combination you really can't tax an older straight bottom Top Gun.
Trannies will go to Huber next week. Blocks will be at the machine shop Friday and the KONRAD drives will be ordered soon.
I sure wish they would fix the auto resize program. (can't resize)
