So Who's Going
Ok, it's 3:30 am and cant sleep. Where is everyone ??
So who's going out today. Its suposed to be a nice sunny day. My V-20 has been only in the water for about 20 minutes so far before the steering problem. She all fixed and ready. Hit the Wallmart today for a cheap air horn and fire exsting. Will be taking her out on a long run today to really feel her out and see how she does in the Delaware Bay and in the ocean, so my diving can begin. Was suposed to be on a dive boat at 6am this morning but bailed out because I want to spend to with my "V". I think I'm in love : ) If all goes well, I'll be posting alot of pictures of how my first true day went. Hope to see or hear someone on the vhs. Who is again, Parrish in Bowers Beach ?, I'll be looking for brother. ;D . I'll be in the area of Beach Plum Island where that old shipwreck is grounded along the beach, then ride on out to the Breakwater wall and ice shears. Hopefully I'll be posting some great news and pictures. See ya soon. Hammer. 8)

Re: So Who's Going
I would have gone out today, but, just like yesterday Long Island, N.Y. is getting socked w/ rain. Actually, the rain let up this AM so it has just been cool and overcast. Of course right now , the sun is trying to break thru as 98% of the weekend is over......Monday is supposed to be nice.....typical

Re: So Who's Going
Hey Perf, fishing guys were catching alot of flounder here in Lewes today.
Ok, well, the day didnt start off to well. The motor started right up, but when I went to take her out, she wouldnt go over 2000 rpms ??? they stall out. This happened three damm times. Almost ready to call sea tow to come and get me. :'( :'( :'( Limped back to the dock when I finally got her running. Wife showed and I said what the hell, I could use sopmeone to talk to while being stranded out at sea ;D so I took a chance and took her back out. This time she ran perfect ????, had her up over 35 mph. Bay was abit choppy, and still need to learn how and when to trim the motor. Ran her up and daown the Delaware Bay and again she was running perfect. Any ideas ?? clogged fuel line, something floating around in the tank, I still have the same fuel filter that came with th eboat when I bought it, but it looks brand new. Someboday mentioned earlier about plugs, she ran perfect on the old plugs, then had new ones installed thaen I break down. So I have no idea whats going on. Monday I'm gonna grab a new filter and hopefully she will run as good as she did the 4th time. Enjoy the pics.
