If you need a new used generator, I have an old Onan, with sound shield, that I will make a great deal on.

Wils - congrats on the purchase. That boat should shine in the hand of the right owner. Sounds like you are realistic about the amount of work necessary and are prepared as best you can be.

Have fun and I look forward to the pics of the re-birth voyage.

Rick - how big is that Onan? If Wils is not interested I may know someone who is.

Rob.

Welcome to the wonderful world of slow boats! I am sure you will have many good outings and memories on her! Just remember the reel advantage to these things, is on an albie trip, you get a full day of fishing in, vs. leaving the bite at 2pm to run home at 25 knots....oh no...not us slow guys, we stick it out till dark......then run home all night ;-) Hot showers, movies and a great dinner as we steam into the evening, keep us posted as things progress.....Congratulations!!!

Get out the chainsaw and sawsall and get rid of that aft cabin. Then you will have a real boat.

Better watch it, Wayne. I'll sick Eddie on you...AGAIN!!!

I have all the "slow crew" on my speed dial. You all can be sure that I'll be checking in from time to time.

 

[Wils]

I surely appreciate the offer. I won't know about the need for a new generator for a few weeks yet. If you have a buyer, don't wait for me.

Sweet Wils. I'm pretty envious of you today. I've been dieing to get into something like that. I realize its quite a cost, but seems like a great way of life to me. Sounds like you'll have a labor of love.

If you need any help with anything, I'm fairly handy and enjoy working with wood. By the way forget Eddie, go wood all the way!

Congrats

mike

Congrats, wils. I will be envious of your finished project, but no so envious of the job ahead. Then again, I'm lazy. I will clean the boat if you take me fishing on it though, assuming something is caught.

Heymon

PS Did the bike come with it?

 

[Wils]

I think that we'll be able to learn a few things about wiring on this one, mike. I hope you can be there to help feed wire?

Wils, I take it all back. Please dont sick Eddie on me. Actually that back of the buss bunk is most likley the best ride.

First, we have to traverse that dastardly 101 & 405 interchange and all that valley traffic.

hmmm...good question. I'll check into it.

Rob:

I am pretty sure it is a 15, but it might be a 12 or something in between. No offer that is even 1/2 reasonable will be refused. The electrical end is comepletely redone, and the engine starts right up. the sound shield is the hard case type and is in just about perfect condition.

The 4th of this year? Pretty ambitious there Wils. Hope you make it and become some tyrant captain!! Hey you didn`t have to buy that boat did you??

 

[Wideopen]

Bill, Did you get that Izuzu running? What was the opinion? What's your fuel tankage, and how old is the fuel? As you know fuel quality with Diesels is the key! I have a couple of idea's for you when you are ready....Bill

no, no opinion, i don't know, over 5 years.

any suggestions for an insurance agent?

4 1/2 months sounded good at the time, bill. If I dont make it, I'll just take a picture of her and take it out in the skiff.

I'm sorry Wils....

The smiley's available here on Allcoast don't allow me to post the guy laying on his back, legs in the air, rolling from side to side...

What have you got yourself into...

We can discuss this on All Fools, it will be the first day off for us since the start date of our project on Feb 6th...

I like the mast......

My speedos will dry faster whipping around in the wind......

edit: wils, upon closer inspection of the picture, it appears you have a crack in the chimney. You might want an expert to look at it before you fire it up....

Looks like the pot calling the kettle black to me.

You know it. Actually I'm working on three other boats right now. The funny thing is I like it better than my day job some times. I would trade them though cause as soon as its called a job I'll dread it.

PM me when you are getting into it. Hell I'd be happy to help with the deck work and all my tools are down here just a few miles from the Marina. The only thing is I might have to bring a few beers with me.
