Last Transmission by BSC was on 5/18, that's nearly a month ago!

I hope he didn't get fed up with answering questions adout why he did things this way instead that, instead of just enjoying the process. I'm guilty as well of that.
Maybe Trysten is keeping him busy, lol.

Don't make excuses for him, he started this thread, potentially the #1 thread in OSO history so it's his sole responsibility to keep up w/ it.

Ok just kidding but I sounded tough typing it.

To be honest I was surprised w/ the amount of time he dedicated to the thread since it started knowing he was basically a 1 man show at Skater throughout the majority of the construction and rigging!
I'm sure it will be worth the wait.

As for me I'm UNSUBSCRIBING at 30 days on the 18th if he doesn't post by then to reset the clock, NOT!

Great Point, you got me on a technicality but 5/18 is still the last BSC transmission.
I'll give some consideration if Tristan posts by 6/18 since she is the OP.

Tyson is working hard to get the boat done. He hasn't had an internet connection where he is staying so he hasn't been able to post at night like he was originally doing. Let's just say, we have made a few changes that Tyson will update everyone tonight!

Sorry I have not been posting on here. I have not had internet at night, and I spent the last month going backwards and were just now caught back up to where we were. Let me just throw a curve ball at this build.....

I don't want the thread to go 10 pages into the change. If I end up needing to I will start another thread about it. I will just say that the engines were supposed to be done more then a year ago and I only have one that is 80% complete. I do not want to wait another year to go boating so I called up Cummins marine and bought two engines and had them sitting here complete ready to install in three days. Then I had to spend weeks cutting stuff out, and doing fiberglass work, and making new engine mounts, ect.

In the end if the Duramax's ever get finished I still plan on putting them in but for now I will be running Cummins.
