Sweet Sound of Spring
 
That would be my boat running in the driveway. I just love firing it up for the first time since winter layup. :evilb: Just sat there listening to some tunes and downing a beer :drink: (I'm sure thats a felony in Utah) watching the neighbors peek out to see what the "racket" was. Can't wait to get on the water - got a week in Havasu lined up begining of May. Might have to hit some of the local ponds for a fix before then.

Dave - how's Pineview - still got ice on it? :D

Last I heard it was still iced over. I need to get up and get our boat out of the shed and get it fired up as well. (we have a shed up at Pineview)
We're headed to the poker run on the 27th and I've been so busy with others boats that I haven't had a second for our own :(

Been running out to Willard for testing and the bugs are in full force :mad:

Your engine always sounds the best the first time you fire it up after a long hibernation. Not being able to boat year round makes it more exciting!

That would be a nice bonus - I just did it for some bling and to fix leaking Merc stuff.
