What are the odds?
In 86 I bought my first jet, a 77 Spectra 19 rd/wht. In 9 years the only thing I had to do was one pump bearing and 1 altenator. I became very active in Slomom in 95 and sold the boat to buy an inboard ski boat. A friend of mine had a friend that lived several hundred miles north, came down, bought the boat and took it home. I want to say Indiana, I live in Dallas.
I always missed the squirt. Ski boats hate rough water. One day I say a rooster tail about 2 miles away and thought I would check it out. It was my old boat!
Seems the guy I sold it too sold it. It was sold a couple more times and ended up 5 miles from my house. What are the odds?. I bought it the next day and for the last two years have been working on it. Never again....hehe. Anyway, It lools like I will have it done by September. Everything is new except the reverse cable.... Wish me luck, I will have questions. It's good to be back......dc
