My 7 ft buddy George forgot the pin in the hitch. Made it from Lansing to Mt Pleasant. Receiver came out and went thru his brand new, never used dingy he was towing. I patched it. It is still holding air three years later.

You're like one of those teasers with the girl with big boobs and a barely top. Then you check it out and it's just a stupid leadin for some kind of yogurt being eatin by fat chicks to lose weight.

At least that's what I've heard......:leaving:

Pulled the Fan/Water Pump off of the Van all in one piece...Got a new Water Pump and Timing Chain and EGR Valve...Now I just need to get the Fan off of the

old one...It's on there good and tight. New Serpentine belt too...Looks like a long Day of Cussing ahead of Me!:smash:

The boat never showed its face. It was white with pink arrow. It went up the end of Park St., No idea who it was. Maybe today it will show it’s face.

Was it a 36 ? Tom Snyders Buddy bought Chaaizee(sp?) a few years back....it had a Toilet:hurray: it was in Peoria for years.

Back on the Van...Finally got the Fan off of the Water Pump, and new timing Chain isn't any tighter than the old one...Putting it all back together Today.

Running perfect today...Hooked up the Boat...Towed it down to the Ramp and slid it back 2 feet on the bunks,then moved the Ratchet/stop 2 feet back..

Better balanced for Towing .

I tried some Hillbilly sh*t on the Harmonic Balancer....Before I went to NAPA and bought a real puller. Then some more Hillbilly sh*t on the Trailer..Try to move a roller.

Picked the boat up. There was a 28 Commanche center console that the owner thinks is an Apache and a 28 Apache Brave out of Gross Ile.

To resealing the drive (More like $750) add a set of spark plugs, carburetor tuning and a gimbal bearing to the list and the boat is done as soon as I can get props on her.

Any pics of the CC?

Owner's pic off interwebs. I may have lied. It may be an Unlimited. Definitely a splash of the splash of the Monza that became the 28 Apache. It's a cool boat for what it is. Has had a lot of work done.
