Sound great! I loved the last one I was at. It was great fun. I think Pocket Change will be ready. Putting stuff together is a lot more fun than taking it apart.

Re: Sandusky Bay Boat Fest / Sandbar Party
 

Sorry to hear about your job. I hope you find something better. I don't know where I left you in the saga that is Pocket Change, but I'm finely done with all the repair in the bilge and transom. I painted it all white and if I do say so myself, it looks good. The way it should have from the beginning. No more red! I'll try to get some pics.

Re: Sandusky Bay Boat Fest / Sandbar Party

Re: Sandusky Bay Boat Fest / Sandbar Party
 

I'm having good days and bad days but all in all I'd say i'm progressing. I tried to put an engine in last night but it got too dark and I didn't want to rush things. It was the second fitting and it went in great. It will be in this weekend. I'm still waiting for some parts but nothing that will keep me back.

Re: Sandusky Bay Boat Fest / Sandbar Party
 

It truly is amazing how much work is going into this project. I wouldn't have thunk it.
