We all like posts from Baylee!

I was looking at those locks. Aren't they made special for each tire, not generic for say a 16.5? A little pricey for pvc is recall?

Listened to a report today saying the the big 3 information companies (google, facebook, twitter) can manipulate the search engines enough to actually change the election results by up to 12mil votes because of how they list and tell what the truth is. Big problem is the low info searchers who believe and click on the 1st two-3 links.

We are in deep do do, maybe the russians run them,,,,,,,,,,

If you seen me in a skirt you wouldn’t be laughing lol

Don't want to see it either way,,,,,,,,,,,,,

All I can say is;

Wait, they have an 12g upper for the AR10 now. Only 1/2 the price!

Well Dave, we know who wears the panties in your home,,,,,,,,,,,

Norm must be bored, he is posting most everyday!!

I understand it is a balance. I am no expert but when people talk lifts, tire size and such they leave out how much your suspension is really in the tire itself.

Big tires and small wheels are great for off road, but not so for drivability on the highway. 

Nice, I want to see the lift?

Norm, you have nice things. Start with Kate for gosh sakes.

All us guys use our trucks, not always to full cap but they earn their keep. The guys who wan a nice new ride get Denalis and such, then some of us have older subs.

TRN, they would drop you before you got across the street with that rig if it were real.

Use that NV and check them out!

I hear you, looks like the TH is going but keeping the LBZ as my DD. Has 156 on it now and still runs great.

Nice job Sophie (good job dad)

It was magnetic to the kids, so I'm assuming he'd have hit it dead center

Isn't that the truth!!

I have heard/read good things about the ATN. If the price is good I would do it. I like the recording options as well.

I have a PVS-14/white phosphor and it is sweet.

Well, we found it actually helped to talk on their level. Wasn't always the best route but it worked.

As for insurance, on Ca DMV knows if you have it our not but was not reported to you on the street. They have to know so they can pull the registration from the vehicle if you don't, what a scam.

And another complaint while I sip my coffee,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

I hear you Rambler, I need out of this state too. Half of what I like is illegal or going to be soon. They are even going to limit water use in a few years!

Don sold both bikes, How did I miss that? Looking at selling mine too, still a project but a runner.

That is cool. I was wondering about "escape" and it was answered.

Funny how boeing is around too and theirs looks like Apollo.

Surely you must have a boat or 2 in that barn?

SPDT, momentary on/off/on. Posted on Iboats and starting to get some replies.

Looks like the hour meter is not working, still has 116 hours after a day of use. Don't think it is far off though. Going to do a comp check, tune and oil change soon.

Looking for this 25 year old wiring assm for a quicksilver throttle. Also found a bunch of tools under the back seat, a little bonus.

Price of a new truck with a slide on camper!

Berryessa has a free use ramp! Who would have thought in Cali! That is also the closest lake and big with good fishing. Main running cost is fuel for now. I topped it off when I went out and its on empty now. Think I used less than 20 but still have to fuel it up.

I went over more videos and calcs and picked a prop. I was kinda hoping to get a solas, as they are the cheapest and I have the hub already. Ended up getting a Turning Point 4 blade 14x19. That is up 3/4 from my current and 2 more degrees pitch and the 4th blade. I may give up a little top end but should gain mid range and get a better hole shot from it. Was only 130 shipped and I have a spare now and a solas hub if I play more.

Looking at the skeg now. I can get a SS slip over for under 100, or a weld on for 40, then the welding which I would guess for another 100.

Sounds like a nice boat and a 10hp to boot. I have a 9.9 outside (new) that I may keep I got for the raft I have. Would make a nice troller but I don't want to drill the boat up. Even a elec troller needs a funky mount out front.

I found a few charts for the prop, watched videos and reviews. The 13 1/4 x 17 gets the boat moving and it planes nice, but it is a bare to get up and revs fast. From what I am reading the 3s are an all around good prop, but a 4 blade will get you up faster, giving up top end. SS is the best, but really out of my price range and still have to find the right size. Charts say a 14.5 x 19 3 blade, go down about an inch for 4 blades.


My motor is the 4.3 with the carter 4bbl, but can't figure if its the 190 or 205 HP. The FI motors are 220hp. I like the 4 blade 14 x 19 with the dual geometry props and will likely try that.

I will probably do the pump this winter. It is not hard but in the water would be a chore. Remember, it just has 118hrs on it now. https://youtu.be/IX9A-_zNobQ
 
Just added the topsider to my cart, that is a good price and I should have a coupon or 2 somewhere.

Oil changes are next, skeg repair, prop and the trim switch (works on auto now while the prop cavitates!)

Has VDO gauges and need to figure out the speedo yet.

After yesterdays use I pulled the drain on the transom and very little came out, pretty clear too. That was good news but it was a little looser than I liked.

Got a few giggles here: https://youtu.be/DHTOm4MDSu4 and I have helped recover some in a previous life,,,,,,,,,,,,

Thanks TRN. Already checked all the safety stuff, all works fine.

Can't do the impellor on this, its in the lower. I have done others on the water so a spare was nice.

Looking into the oil evac, they are pricey.
 

Well, first day on the water was fun. Began with turning it over, then click-click. Just a dirty terminal thank goodness. Used a little starter fluid to get it going, guess the choke isn't really working. Just needed it for the first cold start.

Much of the electrical need tinkering, speedo and trim gauge are in op. Trim has a mind of its own. Tach wasn't working at first, but was good after it warmed up some and the rest of the day. Topped off the fuel with just 5gal of 87. Was told gas was from jan and I added some marine stabilizer. 5 hours on the water, maybe 2 hours running and the gauge said "E" so I need to address that. The 4.3 should be good for several days of mild use with a 30+gal tank.

After a little digging it looks like it has the 3.0 prop vs the 4.3. Prop on it is just 13.25x17. Should be a 14.5x19 and also explains the plowing and the RPMs would go well over 5k if I let them.

Lower skeg is about 1/2 its normal size, so a fix there is called for. So prop and trim switch are being sourced. Oh, the cassette deck works!

Hey, if anyone has a need for a special mantle or wood beam or decorative something like that, contact me as I will soon be sellin' them or maybe givin' them away.

Currently collectin' beams and things to clog up my sawmill

If you weren't so far away,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
