But as CTT said I an nothing like i use to be so doing glass work and such is a no way! So not to be picky but how is the hull as far as rot, transom?? motor and wireing not a problem, but can't get into a huge project. even after transplant, my hands are gone eyes sre gone. My kids can help but when they say the apple doesn't fall far from tree, mine fell ,rolled down the drive way and got smashed by a truck!! LOL
But I want to thank you all!! I really miss boating and fishing!!!
I am glad to call all of you FRIEND!!

I know the feeling. All I can say is keep your head up and hope for the best. I took my boat out yesterday and tried to fish, couldn't even close my hands hardly to hold a fishing rod. Met up with rwilson and talked for awhile, but had to leave because my knees were cramping and I couldn't take the pain anymore. Tried to fish again afterwards, and almost feel out of the boat, finally gave in and called it a day when I went into back spasms. I keep hoping eventually they will figure out something and get me back out on the water, so hold your head up and pray for the best, it's all you can do when your down.

Ok I will take it, My kids (son 29 daughter 26)have assured me it will go! Motor will get replaced with help from a few people, then if it floats we will go from there! I do not have a tow vechjel at this point, so we are going to have to figure that out? I live in Carver, boat will go to my daughters in Wareham, not far from middlebro. can't wait to be able to take grandkids out! gone will be the commercial fishing days, but great family days will be back! i miss the water so bad i say what did i do that was so bad to take it away?? lot of time to think in my old age, its not a good thing.
Thank you all!!

Awesome.... I've been wanting to see that signature line of yours go away for a long time...

"In a V again!" sounds sooo much better to me.

Joe we'll get you goin one way or another.

I would imagine a powerhead won't be too hard to find.

Greg, we can pass the collection plate if you need some gas money... Just say the word.

Deal!

MJ and I will coordinate offline. I'll bring it home from NH; MJ isn't that far from me, so bringing it the rest of the way isn't a big deal. Plus, it gives me an excuse to have some fried clams at Lindsey's!

I'll try to post some pictures to this thread this weekend.

way to go guys, lotta good karma here
