Default Some Gifts from the Wife!

I got my Christmas early.

She made me some new decals for the boat that I really like. It was my idea, but she made it happen.

Then she found some metal signs online that go along with our "Dock Holiday" theme "Tombstone Az", and painted them up for my boat shop.

I noticed you store the boat with the drives trimmed. I was always told to have them down while in storage. Anybody else have a rule a thumb with respect to their drives during storage?

I dig the signs, it is always nice to customize and make it an original. I will show this to my wife to drop the hint!!

Actually the boat was hooked to the truck in that picture. We had just returned from the lake and cleaned the boat up.

When we backed it all the way in and hooked up the shore power and heaters I had the wife to lower the drives all the way down.

I sometimes will leave them up in the summer when we use the boat a lot, but usually put them down.

It is better to leave them down. Less stess on the pumps and lines.
