ThirdBird overhaul
 
Third,

How goes the motors? Haven't heard anythingf rom you lately. Axa and I are attending the SYR boat show in a few weeks and was wondering if you might want to get together at some point.

and make axa jealous, I don't think so. And you know 3rd only dances upon the most pristine of hulls. On the subject of hulls, did Fast Forward in Brewerton do the warranty work on yours? Your thoughts on their work? I know they did a great job on Axa's boat.

yes, yes, and yes. Get your deck done pronto...have 'em go over the whole boat for little extra $$.

And invest in a bow cover or mooring cover if she sits out in the sun when not in use to preserve the finish after you get it back.

51 days 'till spring, and the boat parts are piling up here...

Hey Guys,
Sorry for no posts, got caught in the OSO password debacle.

Anyway, motors are not started yet. Julie has laid down the law "no boat motor time and money until my bathroom is done!!!!!" So, rather than playing "American Hotrod", I'm playing "American Bob Vila". I'm almost done though so I'll be getting greasy pretty soon.

Boat show sounds like a great get-together. When is it? I can drool over boats I can't afford then go out buy lots of drinks I shouldn't afford. :drink:

Let me know what the plans are, we're pretty flexible, well Julie's pretty flexible,,,,,,,,, er,,,,,, ah,,, I mean,,,,,,,,,,,,, never mind................................. :D

1) Automatic deck shoe de-gritter
2) Foot washer
3) Pocket sand vacuuming device (Of course, this is only needed for Mr and Mrs Thirdbird since you guys never leave the Bay :p )
4) 55 gallon drum of Spray Nine with hose connection
5) 30 linear feet of no-skid for all horizontal gunwhale surfaces (Cut by CAD machine to assure perfect fit)
6) Wet-wipe dispnser for removal of suntan lotion from hands
7) Custom canopy within boat house to protect from spider droppings



Can't think of anymore right now but, I'll bet Rippem has something in store that I have not covered here.

Third, you're catching on...

but let me clarify:

#1. Not necessary cause shoes don't get past the door (oh, wait, that's in my dreams). :rolleyes:

#2. sorry, not into the foot fetish thing, maybe you and AXA? :eek:

#3. Mr. and Mrs. Third's "pond" sand are welcome aboard anytime...hell, I let you dance on my deck didn't I? :evilb:

#4. I put that on my list, good thinking! :eureka:

#5. non skid would only hide the incredible gloss. :D

#6. The ladies are allowed to use ME to wipe the lotion from thier hands. The two Daves' will have to work something out. ;)

#7. boat will be wearing a mooring cover in the boathouse this year. Close enough. :cool:
