I just got a few things i wanted fixed on the interior fixed, and back in boat last week
redid the whole trailer, rotors turned, new pads, all new seals, races, bearings, grease, and out covers.
both drives off, replaced yoke seals, and new fluid (had leaking yoke seals.
Still want to adjust the fuel gauge still as empty is really like 1/2 tank.. as well but that's the last project i think.
So, hopefully all its going to need is, oil changes in all 3 motors, and spark plugs and Empalla in the Genny. but it will work how she is.
and a wash/wax,.

Well the boat is in a storage building at the fairgrounds. The entrance to the fairgrounds has snow plowed to appx. 12 feet and the road to the building on the fairground property has about 3 feet of snow cover and the door to the building has a 6 foot drift against it. So.................. no, nothing is ready.
But I have a plan.

It's not ready but I'm getting closer. I'm finishing the buffing and polishing of the new paint job as I type. Then I just need to pull the blowers rebuild them and swap exhaust. But this is half the fun right?

New drive is on and shifting smoooooth. Oil changed. Boat is totally cleaned and wax in and out just gotta throw on a new S/S hardin sea pump. Then as soon as a 60-70 degree weekend comes along (should be soon) head down to Pueblo and we are going boating.



All I have been doing is collecting the parts I'm going to replace when the temperature gets at least to 50.
