Thread: I Can't Wait to Go

    The river season is quickly approaching and everyone is working on projects. The last month has defintely been busy for me with a bunch of projects on the boat and the refurbishing of my trailer. Everything is almost complete though. The trailer has been completely sandblasted, re-painted with white DuPont Imron, fit with all new L.E.D. lighting, and re-wired so far. It was a chore as I created all new lighting openings in the trailer and had to have all the old openings welded up and bodyworked. I am covering and mounting the bunks this weekend and mounting a Rancho shock set up on it next week. After that it gets stainless fenders, new wheels and tires, and goes to the pinstriper to get a few lines to match the candy red on the boat. Then all I have to do is put the boat back on, install new wheel bearings and pack them and head for the lake. I am shooting for three weeks to a month to squeeze in one quick day trip before the river trip to Needles in March. The boat got a flase floor, all brand new carpet, a manual place diverter with floor mount handle,new bilge pump, new chrome ski tow (the old one was rusted to shit) and all new SS seat hardware and gas cap hardware. Fixed alot of the hokie stuff present on the boat when I bought it. I can't wait to hit the water this summer. All this rain and cold weather is killing me. Anyway just an update on my projects. I'll post some pics when everything is all done with the help of Hackjob.

    HotHallet: Dude, did you guys check out my trailer?
    Guys: Ah, no we didn't.
    HotHallet: Ah, Dude, come on, let's go pull the boats out of the water so you can all see the cool work to the trailer
    Guys: Ah, that's ok.

    HB- HA HA HA! Very funny. The fact is my boat isn't fast so I'm doing alot of things to make it look cool. Anyway, I can shoot good pictures with a 35mm but do not have a digital camera. I know I am behind the times but our company won't buy them for us and my check is too slim to go splurge on anything but the boat. I'll have some pics up soon. I'm going to try and post in progress photos of the trailer in the spray booth and it going into the sandblasting booth. I'll get some photos of the lights, the diamond plate steps (which hackjob and flatbroke helped me with)and a few other odds and ends.
