Welcome to the IHoP

Thought we'd try the other side of the lake.

[///M5 2,833]

Floored her. She growned and spit out the stabilizer from the year before, coughing and sputtering some smoke.

[///M5 2,833]

Then jumped to life, hit the powerband, and wouldn't plane the boat.

[///M5 2,833]

Thought, hmmm not good. Opened the bilge up.

[///M5 2,833]

Oh, yeah about 1000 gallons of water.

[///M5 2,833]

No wonder she won't plane.

[///M5 2,833]

Quickly putted back to the launch and yanked her out.

[///M5 2,833]

With both bilges running, and the non-existent plug out she took a good 45 minutes to drain. Holy chit that was a lot of water.

[///M5 2,833]

I guess unless you have a Boston Whaler, you need a plug.

[///M5 2,833]

Non-self bailing boat ftl.

[///M5 2,833]

Pucking $2800!!! Aargh.

[///M5 2,833]

Hope they take credit cards, otherwise I really have to sell my truck.

[///M5 2,833]

Chit, on that note I am outta here. I am going to wash the beast and take some pictures.

[///M5 2,833]

Then will put the tackle and such into ye olde hole in the water, only this time instead of money I can throw in the fishing gear.

[///M5 2,833]

See ya guys later.

[vladd 26]

steve, is there any kind of hurry on the shirt? shanna is planning a few things but if you need it soon we can send it out and just send you the other stuff when she gets it all together

[Chevy350TPI 12]

Whenever you get around to it

[Chevy350TPI 12]

Thought about chrome 20" IROC wheels.

Thought lasted about four seconds.

Definitely not.

They look nice, but just useless for me.

[dennisp 0]

I'm gonna say no on the chrome too.

[vladd 26]

m5, if you get the chance, call lumber places see if they'll take it for free. I think you said it was ash? my uncle used this method to have a huge ash tree removed, though they actually paid him.

[vladd 26]

chome = ugly

only like chrome on bikes, cars look better with brushed aluminum or something like that
