overdue update

[Eggkr8]

Hi All,<br />sorry I haven't posted much lately, my boat project went through a slow down while my life went through a speed up for the past several months. Anyways, I got two break throughs accomplished. I finally have most of my floor installed and glassed into place. I took advantage of some unusually warm and dry Mass. weather to fnish the floor. The other accomplishment was I found a close enough to stock NOS windshield on EBay. For those who watch too much of Fast and furious. This doesn't mean a sticker of a blue bottle on my windshield (nitrous Oxide), but New Old Stock. Original New stuff left in a barn! <br /><br />Next the engine comes out so I can finish the rest of the floor and the transom. I will try to update with pics real soon<br /><br />Cheers<br />Egg

Re: overdue update

That is good news. Those windshields are hard to come by. Neptune must be looking favorably on you. I think you better sacrafice a small animal or relative you don't care for to keep the the favor of the gods.

Thanks Mark,<br /><br />Being of Swedish descent, I side more with it being a gift from Aegir, rather than Neptune ! And what a gift it was ! about $65, (and the same again in shipping unfortunately). If this didn't come along, I was going to start the new windshield procedure from Glen-L's site<br /><br />Now, I downed a bucket of extra crispy from KFC when I found this. do you think that will pass for the sacrafice or should I go break the news to my cat?!<br /><br />How goes your engine battle?

Re: overdue update

Its all back together. Fogged, cleaned and stored for the winter. Next spring it will be ready to go.

Re: overdue update

That's great news Mark. I hope the manufacture was good about the warranty.<br /><br />I hope to remove the through hull area and bell housing of the old outdrive this weekend. I just need to see how much pain I am in after chasing leaves around
