March 2014: Back at it…
Don’t forget to read PAGE 1 first… Spring is in the air.. and soon the snow will be all but a memory.. I do need to get the Bazoo 6×6 finished and out of the shop.. Set up the Costco garage again.. and get the boat done..
Delays Again:
Never got to move the boat out of the shed.. there was other things that were more pressing to do.. There’s always next year.. But I did get some prep done this fall.. The Sabercraft boat that I got for free.. was kind enough to donate a few bits.. before getting cut up for the landfill. First was the motor well ..This Motor Well is prefect… and I’ll make it work. The other important stuff was the side trim..
It’s aluminum trim in the perfect shape I want for the side.. Also saved the bow light.. and a few other bits.
New Power :
As well this year I decided to pass the Chrysler 55 ‘s on to a new person.. and go with the 50 hp Merc I was given… Supposedly it runs ! We’ll see. I’m going to make it one of my winter projects this year.
Jan 2017:
It saddens me to think I’ll never get to see this boat finished.. But so many things keep me away.. The latest is the cost of finishing the boat.. I’m living on fumes here… yes by choice.. but I’m not able to do any projects that will cost money.. So I’m going to part with the boat.. and move on.. I’m also realizing that I have a lot of toys to play with and hard enough to use them all… one more is too much.. there would be litte time to even use the boat.. And my storage is filling up and since the Fifthwheel takes up so much room the boat got kicked out of the nice cozy place it’s been for a few years now..
So it’s up for sale..
Sold to a guy who will love it to…
