Nice....keep moving. So once you have the tanks installed and the bilge all pretty again what's next? Drive and motor? Are you going with the ITS/XR ?

Yeah as soon as I get the other side all glassed up I will finish prepping the bilge for paint & the install the ITS assy & drop the motor in & then I get to start the Fun stuff I have been waiting on !! I will feel like a new man at the moment I start painting the bilge !!

I will most likely leave the tanks out untill I am mostly done rigging up the motor stuff , or atleast untill I start plumbing the fuel system.

Just dropped off the other tank to my tig guy..

Its inching along, but slowly starting to gain momentum.

Country boy? It was funny, the first time I talked to Sean on the phone he told me I have a accent. I guess the first 7 years in Michigan couldn't overcome the next 24 in TN. I just wish he could have heard more people talk when he was down here.

I got back here at about 6:45 without any issues. They were in OK at 7:30 last night. I talked to him about 45 minutes after we left. They stopped for fuel and noticed a bearing cap missing. Good thing there we some extras in the stuff I gave him.

Thats funny , Yours work is probably the same way but he might have went into southern culture shock had he came to the shop.. Yeah those 7 years definatly helped the accent thing & I don't think I have one either but I am sure surfer boy would disagree.. lol my 14 orso years in FL helps carry me though or atleast I think..

Glad to hear you made it back safe & sound !! Yeah one of the boats going with us on our last fishing trip to s.w. FL lost a buddy bearing on the interstate & all I could think about was I would have hated to have been following him when it came off !! But thankfully you Know when a group TN boys go anywhere the will be plenty of duct tape on board..

Sean has duct tape made it west yet ?? Ifnot I will send you some "Chrome" for Christmas this year..Lol

Got a text from him a little while ago. They have made it to AZ...

Good to hear ! Are they staying at Tim's again ?

got a picture of the boat caption said "welcome to california" at about 8p our time.

You get rid of your boat?

Me no no no..

As for my Pantera bro's I will let them speak..
