Re: THE FLOATER IS GETTING A REBUILD courtesy (pontoonstuff.com)
Now that THE FLOATER is running with 3 weeks before daughters wedding I am elated and sad..... Not sure we have the time to take her out until middle of Oct for the first and last ride of the year! But hey she looks good!
I got all the wiring straightened up and the docking lights put on. Everytime I moved a wire I made sure it still fired...
I wasted an hour fighting a nest of 15 or so wasps that were under the bow....
Running around spraying behind me as I ran.. which I had a video of that
I finally got them a killed and kept on working. Funny thing is there is still a lot of little stuff to do yet.
Man why couldn't she have gone to city hall instead!
