I heard that my 32s should be in to BBlades next week. Then it's test for a baseline, and lab the chit out of them.
I heard from Susan, at BBlades, that Brett is psyched about this Precission deal on the Fountain. The eyes of the perf world are upon us, and I quote.
I heard Brett is getting some calls about these props, because of the old speedo number. Great to hear, he's a good guy.
I heard that oil hit a new high today, 138 and change, F'N speculators.

I heard that diesel is at $4.999 today, gas at $4.159. Would appear that Rip was wrong, he said we gassers would be paying $5.00 and his diesel would be back to $3.00 or something like that. Poor Rip, well he never drives it anyway. Good thing his boat is a gasser, though it makes little difference when you're driftin'.
I heard the weather tomorow is hot and iffy, but going to try to get the boat up there and in the slip.
I heard that if I haul it in the rain it could get wet.
I heard that could cause water spots.
I heard Samantha say it's time to get it up there, it's time to start summer!!!
I heard that summer dosen't really start up here until the 4th of July, so I'm still ahead of the curve.
I heard Mrs. President ain't likely to be heard in this decade.
I heard that Bill's dissappointed, he was looking foreward to being the First Boy Toy.
I heard, scarry as it may be, that "Yo, Prez" is a possibility
. I heard that it's not spelled O'Bama, so likley he's not Irish.
I heard that you are attempting to reduce your draft.

I heard one should never depend on one little bag-o-tricks.
I heard that this is particuliarly true when the other guys bag-o-tricks has yet to be opened.
I heard 94 is a streatch, and 97+ ain't never ever gonna happen. Unless, of course, Rippem hauls it down Rt.81.
I heard that Rip said for $10.00 in diesel, and the token grease my palm fee, you too could have a big number on your recall to show everyone.
I heard my "T-shirt guy" is busy, busy, busy.
I heard Samantha say she hasn't seen a chit eatin' grin like this on my face in a long long time.

I heard you think you can wipe that grin off my face.............................................. ................NOT.
Soooooooooooooooooooo, What have you heard???

I heard that an abundance of that JT-6 grease would have prevented that chit, you can never have too much of a good thing.
I heard that you should Grease Grease Grease Grease Grease Grease Grease, then Grease again.
I heard you should never leave home without your grease gun.

found a little imformational tutorial for those who need enlightenment.
http://dexteraxle.com/e_z_lube_system
As I stated previously, I put alot of grease through mine because of the heat generated by the frequent hanging up of my surge drums.
Cheap insurance, the same insurance policy that got your last set of trailer bearings with an unknown use/service history 1000 miles without failure.
I guess the bottom line is that some of us wouldn't go down the road with a used trailer that has been submerged in salt without a complete hub/bearing inspection/service.
Others oblivious to the obvious choose to believe that trailer brearings and tires are maintenence-free and last forever.

You might want to rethink the know it all attitude you had when you made this post. This high perf boat stuff is much more complex than pumping grease in a wheel bearing.

Maybe if they were set up by someone who knew what they were doing that problem could be corrected.
