Gregg your a little early, not for a couple weeks yet.

But I guess it's good to be prepared.

Yep me too… Well almost.
Just need to rebuild the carbs for the GT 150, and figure out why the fuel pump leaks.
Rebuild the carb for the 1900, and put The interior panels back in that's been removed for covering.
And rebuild the drive, and replace the trim cylinders on the bal harbor.
If time permits I may wash some of them, but I suspect wax is out of the question.
Oh did I forget to mention there may be a couple of motors installed along the way
🤣

" and figure out why the fuel pump leaks. "

Last two seasons, my fuel pump screws were loose, about 1/8 turn, some bubbling and fuel drops.
Locktite ?
Just keep an eye on it ?

Better to early then to late .. LOL
Hope to have time to get her out before meet.

Nice pilot!

Need to wash and wax Phoenix. I want to get her out on the water for a run before we head north just to make sure no repairs are needed since she hasn't seen water in almost two years. I hope the weather cooperates next Saturday afternoon for a lake run!

I need to wash ,wax ,and test run the boat on the river this week, or next week? Then get the " Miss Toni" cleaned and fueled up for the trip to TI along with a host of small last minute projects to finish. We are looking forward to spending some great time with friends on the water.

I saw that at the lake and wondered
Is that a 17 or 19?

Are you bringing the big boat up to TI for the weekend or just running back and forth with the little boat?

I think we may just run back and forth but plans are always subject to change.....

Okay, I will be bringing the " Miss Toni " to a slip at TI and tying " Toni's Toy " behind us. The Marina said they have plenty of slips still available.

No waxing (no time) but TonkaJim stopped by yesterday and we figured out the trim issue so I'm good to go!

Phoenix got a clean mechanical bill of health this morning. Drive alignment checks out perfect. Larger cfm flame arrestor and new crankcase breather hose and a new fuel filter.

Tomorrow is wash and wax, and clean and detail the interior. Weather permitting.
