Hey guys - I'm finally back on here. I think it's been over a week which is probably a record for me. I'm not sure what I've been doing, but I just haven't seemed to make it here.
For what it's worth, I agree with MM about the thread (though Barb is right that it is what we make it). I've found myself going back to OSO just to read the thread over there.
So in that interest....
Chief - glad you've got things running. I know how frusterating it is to watch a half hour job take forever. Tony finally has the entire dash wired (and it works! lights included!). The only thing left up there is the throttles. Then all we need is the oil thermostats in and the second engine and exhaust in. I keep crossing my fingers that we're going to make it in time. If we do our run on someone else's boat again we'll never hear the end of it!
Also - anyone ever heard of tree roaches? Apparently my neighbor (who also has her condo up for sale) had them in her place. A prospective buyer came to look at both of our places and saw hers first (and spotted the roaches). She didn't even bother to look at mine after that. I haven't seen anything in mine, but I sprayed near the doors and baseboards just to be safe.
I was in Mentor last week and you should be glad your boat wasn't in the water yet. I would have showed up, hat in hand asking for a ride
