I am happy to report that after 9 long months the engines left our garage yesterday They are in Lake St Clair at Lenny's place Millennnyum Marine waiting to be tested. Hopefully Ian put all the parts back together correctly, & if so he will be hauling the boat there early in the week so the engines can be dropped in and we will be testing on Lake St Clair on Memorial Day weekend. It has a been a loooooooong winter

Keith that is great news about your boat, I am looking forward to seeing you guys again, if you are up for a drive come on down sometime over the weekend. Both boats should be in the water by then. Tomorrow he bringing the Malibu home to get that ready. I just bought 15 flats of flowers, so much to do I think I hate spring

Dyno I will ask Ian to post all the good stuff he did to the engines over the winter, I think he hopes to see about 5 more miles an hour do you think we should have an enclosed canopy built

I hate to say much until Lenny runs them. Don't want to jinx them They have new cams, a grind board members RLW & Rmbuilder used to make over 700hp in a 540 very similar to mine. They also have cylinderhead work by Jim V, exhaust and chamber port and a valve job. They should be back in the boat and running before Memorial Day.

Donna I feel your pain I'm going to push a wheel barrow full of bark all weekend.....flowers are Rachels job next weekend. Lucky SuperV's Mom owns a green house or I'd be broke before boating even starts.

yea i never get any help with the flowers, Ian is usually pretty busy with boat projects. I can't imagine what life would be like without the BT. Perhaps cheaper The good thing is it is a great excuse every time Ian starts giving me chit about the visa bills
