Todays test Run

[msbhammer]

Didnt expect to take her out today, but the guy at the boat yard who helped me load her, said, LETS DO IT !!.
So excuse the mess in the boat. The boat was loaded with all my tools and stuff for the trip home. She started up on the second try. Starter spun ??
She ran great, plenty of water out the exhaust, but still not as much as I wanted to see coming out of teh pee hole, New water pump coming along with new volt and water psi guage. She rode great, the motor was smooth running. My friend did notice the the motor turned sharper to one side the to the other side, about a 2 inch differnce. Might need a longer arm he said ?
Still need to bolt the seats down, patch and paint inside, but I gotta tell ya all, being out there on the water, I totally forgot about the "Things to get done List" I had a big old ghrin on my face. I was loving it. The stress just dropped 75 percent. Even with the dinged up prop, she ran really well. Steering slightly stiff, but some of the wifeys sex lube and it'll be fine ;D
Bad thing is I'm busy all week until Sunday. But I'll be taking her out for sure on Sunday !!!.
Need to work on the enclosure and the dive platform. My booty is waiting for me out there on some unknown wreck.
Enjoy all the pics.
The guy driving is the yard guy.
