Boat is HOME with the new Suzuki

[TunaHead]

I drove the V home from Oregon on Sunday with the new Suzuki 140 in place. All I can say is that I know how those husbands feel on "Extreme Make Over" when they first see their wife after a boob job, face lift and liposuction. I'm SURE that I had the same expression on my face anyway. It looked a little like this-> ;D

[willy]

congrats Tuna, may she run true for you all the time, should be a great match ;)

[msbhammer]

thats one sweet ride ya got there t h and by the way nice shirt....lol

[msbhammer]

Tuna, what kind of bottom paint you use. I like the high gloss finish on her. ;)
Oh yeah, nice tee shirt. ;)

[TunaHead]

Mike thats actually not bottom paint. I got carried away when I painted the cockpit. I taped off the chines and bottom portion of the transom and gave 'em a fresh coat of paint. The deck is the same color of blue Petit topside paint.

[reelapeelin]

What came in the mail ??? ...lessee...hmm...new shoes?...new motor?...prop?...



New V-20 shirt!!...lookin' good there Tuna!! 8)



Everybody that's got one, loves their 140 Zuke...I think yer gonna, too ;)

[msbhammer]

Tuna, may have to get up with ya on the painting topic.
As far as spraying or rolling. Been looking at spray guns on ebay. Thought about a quick allgrip paint job on the hull. Never played with a spray gun before, but plenty of spray cans when I was a juvenile. ::) ::) ::)

[Blue_Runner]

Tuna - that is an awesome motor. Johnnyzuki would be my choice of 4 stroke as well if I were to go to a 4.

I know you are happy as a lark....will be even happier when you see that 5-6mpg burn rate!

BTW - WE ALL HATE YOU!! (execpt RB - who is your equal : WE HATE HIM TOO ;D)

[TunaHead]

Hammer, I have the cheapest spray gun in the world. It came with a set of air tools that I got on sale at an auto parts store after I bought a small compressor. Despite the poor quality it did a reasonably good job. I don't figure that I'll be doing a lot of painting. If I was going to do it over again I go to the local pawn shop where there are 4 or 5 better quality air guns sitting on the shelf at a good price.

Blue, I love you guys too. BTW the shirts arrived yesterday. Before I opened the box from Ches I told my wife that I had ordered a T and a sweatshirt. She immediately asked if she could wear my sweatshirt and I said "NO!" She actually looked a little hurt because I was obviously serious. Then I opened the box and said with a smile "You can wear your own sweatshirt" and handed her the one I had ordered for her.

It was good night ;)

[randlemanboater2]

Smooooth TH!

[msbhammer]

SMooth Talking with the Wifey there TUNA, ;)
The paint job still looks good on the V as well. ;)

[whale]

Tuna.....I know it was a long road to this point but your V is looking so sweet with the nice paint and the sweeeeet new Suzuki motor. I like the little matching blue fish emlem behind the helm seat.....

[willy]

Tuna that was smooth with the CEO, it was very Willyesque so to speak ;)

The engine looks sweet brother, you done good. 8)

[willy]

Hey Tuna I noticed your boat was missing your insignia in the pic so I thought I would help you out. What goes around comes around. ;D

Still love that bright blue bottom paint Tuna. She's sweat. ;)

[willy]

Thought you would like it brother, it adds a certain flair ;)

[TunaHead]

Willy, I don't know how it but I want to go on record as saying that I found it a little creepy photoshopping around Stinky's nether regions.

[Stinky_Hooker]

LMAO! ;D

FINE ride you got there bro!! She is SWET!! :o

[willy]

Agreed Tuna, thats why I had my son do it and he was complaining the whole time. ;D
