Looking amazing Wood!!! Where did you get the black, plastic transom protector thingy? It looks very clever and handy.

Wood,

Where do you plan to splash it? I'm probably headed to Oolagah if I get my chores done.

Looking forward to some pictures of the "big day"
Should be a fun event after all the work you have done on her. It also gives me a standard to try to set in my Lone Star resto. All the best Mike.

Thanks to ALL of you for your thoughts and prayers. Mom is recovering nicely and Dr. says she may go home in a few days. Again I appreciate your thoughtfullness and concern. That's what makes this forum such a great place.

Mom came home today! Feeling much better. She said to say thanks to all of you that were thinking of her. She says she wants me to hurry up so she can take a ride in the boat!!!! She is quite a character. Still not trailer parts!!! I'm getting a bit impatient.
