bryanspeedracer : Thank you. We have a long way to go, but it's getting there.
VelocityMike : I don't have a set date yet. Within the next few days the boat is going to be transfered to the new trailer. While the boat is in the air Tres and his crew are going to go over the hull one more time to do a thorough inspection. There are some minor dings and chips that need to be fixed and they are going to make sure that there are not any problem areas that were missed while the boat was on the trailer.
If this all goes well, the plan is to get the boat in the water next week for some testing. Tres is going to spend some time in it to make sure that the boat is set up correctly and dialed in. That is the game plan as of today, but you know how that goes.

That's A Serious Tow Rig !!!!
Don't listen to LEOPAJM 
if you had picked a black wheel he would have suggested white cause it's cooler 
I'm impressed with all your efforts to bring one of my all time favorite big Apaches back to life, it takes a ton of $ ( don't save the receipts) and just as much patience. This year get it running and sorted, next year make it pretty.
BTW I vote for returning it to the Apache Kid / Kid Apache graphics....... always loved that thing
I'll be in OC in August ( I say it's for the kids but it's really for me, man do I miss it) I'm going to make an effort to find ya, buy you a couple a drinks and lobby for the old graphics

Actually it wasn't too bad up here ( more cool days on Erie than hot) but in OC in July and August it'll be a tad uncomfortable.
