The wait was well worth it.. You are flying thur this.. And your work is awesome..

I like the extention on the trailer and it looks like it will work great for you..

I think when I flip my hull I will be looking at you for details on how I want to put it back together..

Hope you make your dead line.. The extra 2 weeks will go by fast..

HOLY SMOKES! You and your assistants have continued to do an amazing and impressive job! While I know it's unwise to wish away time, I can't wait to see the pictures filled with smiling faces while floatin' and fishin'!

We had a great weekend for weather up here! I didn't get much time on Saturday or Friday evening for that matter but I did have the admirals permission to spend the day Sunday working on the boat project. I spent the better part of the day finishing up the trailer.

It's finally done and ready to go get the plate for it. Hopefully this week I can find a place to go get it weighed. The only thing left is new wheels but those can wait for a bit.

I spent the rest of the evening cutting the entire outdrive & trim system out of the donor boat.

I also got the outdrive posted on craigslist. If all goes well I might fund the rest of the rebuild with this, :facepalm:

Happy cinco de mayo folks!

Re: 1982 Sylvan Bassboat project

Ok all, as JBC just eluded to. Tomorrow we move to the new castle. I am glad this chapter will soon come to a close and we can settle back into working on the Sylvan again. I owe y'all a few pics from a few recent updates but I'm too tired to upload them right now so you'll jus haf ta wait and wonder :lol: We'll just say she's off the dry dock cradle and back on the trailer for the first time in over a year and a half.

I'll be without internet for a couple of days but once I get things hooked back up and settled at the new digs pics will be forthcoming.

Have a safe and productive weekend all!

And happy Father's Day to all you dad's out there!
