  • This Is It !.......

    The last few days i took the time to spray paint the crappy looking trailer so it looks a little better for this year. Later this year or early next year i will start looking for a new or close to new trailer. Saturday i have a appointment to get the Safety chains welded onto the trailer. SteveK, How do you like that chrome coupler ! !

    Down to the last few things like.....

    Windshield installed
    Black Rubrail has been order.
    Washington State 2015 sticker
    Prism Graphic in Seattle making up the hull number's/letters

    Then i want to gas her up and go to Lake Stevens to test her out.

    Thanks to all of you for your comments thru the last 6-7 months as that really keeps a person motivated on his/her project. Chuck

        Nice job, Chuck. I still say you should put her in the Sound though, and cruise over to Bainbridge this Saturday

          Thanks John, One of the problems is i'am waiting for the Lic tab from the state and the mailing of the hull numbers....and the windshield. That's just one thing as i want to take it to a smaller body of water (lake ) test it out before i take a cruise out into the sound that would be like jumping into it and going to the San Juan Island without checking all items first. Don't get me wrong, if i had Skagit Bainbridge i would not pass up the chance to take it out to your launching ! Have Fun !!

            Pish Posh! You don't need sea trials or a windshield! Just kidding. Get her done right and we'll hook up sooner or later.

                Steve, I showed Sheila my "chrome" in a spray can ! She thought that was something else.

                  I've used it before as well. When I was restoring the old Bearcat engine. It's not bad for a redneck chrome job. Git-r-done.
