Hopefully I'll have some more pics tonight.

Damn, nice tow rig Malcolm. How's it pull the boat?
My day was pretty productive. Hooked up the boat to 12 volts and checked for voltage where it was supposed to be and checked to make sure it wasn't where it wasn't supposed to be. Everything worked great except for my bilge pump switch. Gonna have to get a new one.
Only real bummer is that my shifter cable became sticky over the winter. While I was trying to free it up it decided that it wanted be a 2-peice cable......Nuts.
Gonna have to give Rex a call tomorrow morning........
It really surprised me how well it handled it! I hope we have as trouble free a time going over the pass next week as we had today. It's a V-8 Explorer, so it has enough power and the four wheel disc brakes seem to stop it really well too. Overall I'm pretty happy with it.
I liked my new cable today. It shifted very smooth compared to last year. Made me start thinking about my steering cable.
Sounds like a perfect tow rig.
Hey if I don't talk to you before hand, have a great time over on the other side and tip one back for me......
WILL DO.
Looks nice Malcolm.
Nice rig. Another SUV pulling the boat over the pass. Cool. You might beat us to Moses Lake. Mine has a V6, 45-50 over the pass. :sleeping: Oh well.
That is a good looking Exporer. Nice job. I'll have new parts in early next week. I need my wife to show me how to download some pictures. I'm bummed that I can't do Moses. I should make it run by the 4th. What is everyone doing on that weekend? We should at least do a small get together on the river or something. Chris hasn't been on the river at all, and it's right in our back yard. It's always glass, and has some great beaches.
Yup, that's what I keep telling him! I think he's scared.
That's where we shot this.
