OK, on the road, leaving now to p/u FishBones and her new motor.
Y'all have a safe trip


P.S Nipper that is not a conversation for the board. But I can tell you Krinkle is apparently southern version of Saran Wrap. Now the rest you will have to let your mind wander

Have fun now. Wish I was there..

BTW - Destroyer, sometimes you gotta drop some heavy base to get the crowd frenzied. (ie I can't see Roy getting it done on the pole.) All in fun,
Be safe and post up some pics...

The plan is to start anchoring up at the north end of the pack near and or north of the board walk that you can use to cross over to the beach. Looking forward to seeing you and any other Jersey boys....I know there is lots of us!

Unhappy

Oh well... it was a nice thought. Trailered down, put the boat in the water near Lanoka Harbor.... noticed that the tell-tale wasn't pissing like it should... figured something was caught in the hose or whatever. Pulled the cowl to check hoses and smelled gas... looked down and saw gas dripping from my VRO/fuel pump. Pulled it off at the dock... bad diaphragm. Now I have to find one. Got a quote from the marina...Guy there told me that OMC stopped making replacement parts for my VRO pump about 5 years ago... but he'd be very happy to sell me a whole new one for roughly $500. Put the boat back on the trailer and came home. (It's been a bad day)...... There is no way on God's green earth that I'm going to pay $500 for a piece of rubber the size of a mayonnaise jar lid!! I'll go hunting on Monday... Hope you guys at Tices had a better day than I did...

Oh, and did I mention that I also need to replace my water pump impeller?....<sigh>
