thanks for letting me join this site.
You're welcome... (Actually the bar must be set pretty low because they let me join a couple of years ago....)

Anyway, :welcome: to the forum!

Where do you boat? I'm on the Portage Chain of Lakes in Pinckney.
 
no , i am way down south , just north of south bend indiana . i will be playing on eagle lake here in edwardsburg and diamond lake in cassopolis
 
JW , what lake near three rivers ? i grew up on long lake by corey . back in the 1970s a group of checkmates used to come long lake on the holiday weekends . thats where my love of checks started

Hello All, figured I should introduce myself after lurking for a couple weeks. Already gleaned lots of good info here, great forum. Recently acquired a 1980 Predictor w/ 90hp I6 Merc. Replacing interior and doing some very tedious gel coat restoration, goes a lot faster watching on YouTube :). Anyways, will have a few questions that I couldn't answer by searching.
Duane in Ypsilanti.
 
Welcome; been lurking myself; mostly because I have been busy removing some wet foam...

Recently bought a 1979 Predictor with Merc 900(I6).

No river or lake yet..no need prolly until 2019.

Will try to start separate thread on my boat and new floor.
 
thanks. Just finished carpeting my new floor and seat mounts. Mounts were the challenge. Always believed I thought well in 3 dimensions till I started duplicating those.
