I am thinking I will have to go down 1 jet size. I will have to bring the jets that are in there now to mich with me next summer. Would be way to lean at sea level. Great more parts to carry in the boat.

I AM DONE SANDING ON THIS BOAT. Well at least untill the primer fly's. If I can catch a day above freezing I can wheel the boat outside to wash all the dust off. Kick the car out of the garage, put the boat in the middle and plastic off a spray booth. Then its primer time. YEA BABY. Then, well sand somemore. I remember why I decided to turn wrenches instead of doing body work. Does it ever end. Stay tuned.

Will your boat be ready this summer?
I sure hope so. Going to be taking the rig up to Mich. for the summer vacation. If its not done I think the family will hang me.
I will be headed to Grand Haven last week of July thru the 1st week of Aug. As the summer gets closer I will put the word out. It has the making of a get to gether. Just have to figure out when and where.

Gus you are almost there. I hope you can have it ready for your trip.
Well the garage is all seperated and hosed down, boat is washed, de greased and de-waxed. It is now in the center of the garage. The heat is on so everything can sabilize temp wise. Sat. I will tape off the trailer and shoot 2 coats of primer. Should be interesting. It will hopefully show all the spots I still need to smooth out. I will post pics when the primer is on.
Let the tapping beging.
We have primer. There are only about 9 spots I have to fix. This is 1 light coat. Then a second normal coat. I will shoot another coat later today. Then It will be back to sanding. Oh Joy.
A few more.
Thanks, It means alot to me. Never thought this day would get here.
