Should have new piston and rings Wednesday. I honed the cylinder and it looks great. Just patching it until winter then do some upgrades...

I'd be game for one. Conroe is full so should be good. This is my time off schedule for the next few months.

Home July 24th - Aug. 11th. Then away again. My back-to-back wants to swap some time this Summer so I'll only have 3 weeks off this time home.

Home again Sept. 11th - Oct. 13th. I'll have 5 weeks off. Wife wants a trip to Destin sometime durring this time frame. Gotta keep her happy.

Sorry to hear about that problem, troper. Is that a result from the impeller taking a dump on you?

BTY, awesome boat you have. I seen it on F dock. I had to walk past it on the way to my slip. Even got a pic of it Friday morning while I was fueling up at the fuel dock just up from Outriggers. Sounds good too!!!

No I think I have an injector leaning out. This is the same cylinder that the head gasket blew a few weeks ago. I going to send my injectors to BUP and have them cleaned and checked next week.

I was thinking maybe a raft off on the 13th of September. It gives everyone plenty of time for planning.

Thanks troper for keeping my injector service in mind. Call me on Monday if needed, I will have to tell you, keep in mind of the holiday on the 4 th as I really need a break. Heck everyone goes boating but me. I am overwhelmed and wanted to take sometime off. Not sure of what days yet because I still have a ton of boats to work on. Just wanted to post this if you are looking for a certain timeframe for your TBI injectors.

Feel free to call anytime, I work 7 days a week for the past 2 months so I answer my phone on Sundays as well.

Sounds good. Can't think of a better way to return home than taking the wife and boat out at the same time. I know the wife would enjoy it. She'd be up for any raft off, poker run, fun run or whatever.

If you need help organizing I can assist when I return back home later next month.

Well the bad news is my gf has a birthday on the 12th and a competition on the 13th so def a bad weekend for me, but i can gladly get the ball rolling if it works out for everyone else! I'm about making it happen as much as participating, so y'all let me know!

troper 06-29-2014 02:02 PM

How about Sept.20th?

TW720HVY 06-29-2014 05:05 PM

Fun run on Conroe sounds like a great time, please keep me in the loop we'd be up for it!

Troper, sorry to see that picture! That doesn't look fun at all.
