PDI Done Almost Fishing!

Well finally got the boat in for the PDI. All went well no issues. I will be updating the Gallery soon but for now here are a few pics post rigging.

NOTE: Boat is dirty and is not done(well will it ever be). There is always something to do.

Some who saw the in process pics will be amazed to know that the citrus tree under the platform looks like it survived.

I will have more pics soon as it may be out for a sea trial on Saturday. Replacing some trailer parts tonight and tomorrow to make sure it's ready.

Did you see what was done at the PDI? Looking good. Saturday should be fair weather (which means 15 to 20 out of the south

). Best of luck on the first time after repowered trip. Anxious moments but it don't get much better..

You now have a beautiful setup, Nice cable/wire management, I did mentioned the citrus plant in one of my post glad to see it survive :) Good luck and base on what you did so far I bet you will continue to spice her up as you go along..Keep us posted ...

That is really looking great. Hope all goes well with the boat and the tree.

I didn't see it but they told me.

Consisted of hooking up to computer to verify all was plugged in properly and working.
Checked batteries and fired up motor for the first time.

They sprayed the motor down with corrosionx and advised to do so every 2-4 uses.

PDI didn't seem like much. 1 hour of service charged. Supposed to go in at 20 hours for the first check/maint.

Saturday will be questionable, but if I make it out I will definitely be staying in the bay/intercoastal.

sweet setup. I think you will be real happy with the performance of that motor. Good luck on your break in voyage.
