Phragle's official winter upgrade thread..

I will after I park it down town tomorrow... its full of spare trailer tires etc.. at the moment....
 
Hey Rat, the motorhome is behinde the baseball diamond, you know what it looks like. Door is open, rum and pepsi in the cooler on the counter, help yourself!
 
Im a happy boy!! Ran that little boat WFO for miles and it never missed a beat. Trailer towed great, no tire problems. bearings were all within 10 degrees of each other the entire trip.

This trip was the first time I have launched it from the trailer, a friend has a marina here so i have always hoisted it. Loads great, sunday morning the wind was pretty brisk and had no prblem loading it myself. It was interesting doing it behind the motor home as I can barely see the edges of the fenders in the mirrors. Plus the motorhome has a ton of overhang behind the axle so backing it down was interesting.
 
I really like the way this pic came out with Phragle's in the forefront of all the big cats late evening under the lights...

 
Working on setup a bit, Seem the starboard tab is dragging, so making an adjustment there. Also pulling the motor, relocating bilge pump, exhaust gaskets and adding some ribs. reenforcments... gimble bearing is getting grumbly so doing that too.

Funny note,

Last year at loto shootout, I was fueling up the Cig after running door to door with Doc J's SVl OL. (Sneaky phucker) at horny toad. Down this narrow lane the owner of "gotcha" is backing up and inches from my Cig. He does a perfect job and as he eases by, compliments me on my old Cig. Talk to him later and what a genuinely nice guy. It doesn't matter what anyone runs as long as we all have fun and support the greater good!
