No problem... It's been raining up here in MD for the past several days anyway. I've been busy ordering a chit load of stuff for the boat. Nav equipment, radio, safety stuff lighting all new gauges etc, Lol! All of it should be here today. Like they say,if you can't afford it, effin finance it. It's supposed to be nice for the next few days so I have plenty to do including cleaning the cabin and a coat of wax. No rush.

What are you doing with the factory gauges? If they are in good shape(by the looks of the boat I imagine they are) put them in the swap shop and see what you can get out of them

Perfect and THANKS!.

I'll give Matworks a call and get it ordered. Glad to see you're out and about with the Bird.

No problem. Sorry it took so long. Hopefully you can have yours in the water soon.

beauty. that is one of my favorite three color schemes. i also have an '89 242LS on the exact same trailer, and pull it with a black F-150 haha.

Thank you, mine as well. Subtle but different than most Formula's. That's a friend of mine's truck, and was kind enough to let me use it to get the Bird. I don't know what Ford has done, but this one is the STX with a 5.0. Going through the mountains in upstate NY on the way back, the truck didn't even know it was hauling the boat. The trailer was just as impressive. Pulls nice at 55 - 70. No complaints. the 8 hr trip was the same, hauling the boat or not.

i went from a powerstroke to my F1 and was skeptical about how it'd do, but i've been nothing but impressed as well. and mine is older with a 5.4 and 5 speed trans.
