The bay was like a lake, there was a good East swell coming in around the hook.

Things were going great until my timing chain decided it didn't want to be in the engine anymore... To top it off, my lift was broken when I got back. Not a good day....

I know it's kinda late but watch "try my life" on style channel @ 11. It's Ed with my twin scarab! Too funny! On again in a couple days. The guy that owns the stress factory ends up mowing lawns for ed!

Thanks, I'm still sulking..

Shouldn't be a big deal though. If I have enough time to do everything I should be back running next weekend or latest the weekend after.

$20 part can cause a lotta headaches sometimes. On the bright side, at least it wasn't JC's motor!

Now we both know your lift was on the rag, jammed in there pretty good too

Just wait until that wiring mess burns the dock and the rest of the boats there go with it. Sure hope you carry fire insurance

$20 part? Damn, no wonder. The part should have cost a lot more than that. www.jeselonline.com

You were so scared of running in Apache water that you broke your boat on purpose? Any excuse not to run in some real water. CHICKEN CHIT

It was just an analogy because the chain probably cost $20, add the sprokets then you have the full price.

I basically have the same chain as the Coyles, it's a Manley Race Roller with torrington bearing and cam button. $90 There's really no reason it should have broken. Should know more tomorrow.........
