Well, I sure picked a crazy day to go pick up the new boat. I had to stick around Saturday to finalize the deal on the Scout. The guy came and took it home, wasn't too bad a day here.
So yesterday I made the drive back to Cape Cod to finish the deal on my new ride in white out snow conditions. The roads were okay to drive as the only accumulation of snow was on the grassy surfaces. By the time I reached the guys house the sun was back out. But, the guy has ocean front property and let me tell you, the wind coming off that water made for 0 degree wind chill temps. We went ahead with the motor check anyways as me and my Bud came dressed for the worst. The guy hadn't tried to start it in a while, but we put the water to it and she fired right up no problem. Did a compression check and my numbers matched the paperwork that he had from work that was done earlier this year. He had a complete tune-up, carbs all cleaned out and synched, new water pump kit and T-Stats. So I guess that's the best you can do for an older motor then hope for the best. Hitched it up and trailered her home. She towed very nice. He had a new axle, hubs and bearings along with all new poly rollers put on this year as well. BY the time I got home, the sun was out at my house and quite a bit warmer, but the whole bow and center console were a sheet of ice from what my truck was throwing up. So I guess you could say I'm a happy camper right now. Were supposed to warm up a little by mid week and I'll fog the motor and cover her up for the rest of the winter. Already making plans for improvements.

Oh, and hey......How about those Patriots eh? A lot of missed tackles, but they got the job done. Mr Tebow is gonna get real hurt if they keep letting him run with the ball like that.
Crazy day of football yesterday. Jets loose to Eagles?  Green Bay looses their first while Indy wins their first. I guess that monkey is off Green Bay's back now going into the playoffs.
