Willy my friend, you are so very correct on fixing the hose issue. I cannot help but wonder how many boats have sunk for exactly the same reason. i did the same thing when I had my deck off earlier this year. every single hose, gas, water, oil ...has been replaced... the peace of mind was worth every dollar I spent. Fishbones looks awesome!!! Well done!!

If God didn't have a purpose for us we wouldn't be here, so
Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly.

Silence, in the face of evil, is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless.
