    Just thought I'd share a nice photo.

    @redneck joe you were on Normandy, right? Beautiful today. Looks like early next week will be the same ... and I have a conference 😑

    MIBS! We had a big client there, but I didn't go down this this year.

    Bought a Used Boat, but what is it?

    Too many people join this forum to do a build, only to get VERY frustrated along the way when the build doesn't go the way they want. There are lots of folks here who have gone through those frustrations and see the potential trouble: the warnings here - most all of them in my opinion - were to...

    Hmmm ... I thought I was encouraging, provided you understood what you were getting into ... :confused:

    Bought a Used Boat, but what is it?

    You're up against a lot with that one. Look up Fibra boats - similar lines, but not sure if it's the same. You can also do some digging around HERE and see if you find anything. Seriously: do a gut check on the boat. I like old fiberglass, and I even like the OMC electric shift - but it's...

    That's cool. I was playing with some stuff like that a couple years ago: started monkeying around with making furniture DIY with plywood and then played with some shelf ideas.

    Need help with my situation

    I'm glad for you that it wasn't crazy expensive, and it's done. Not always easy on a soldiers pay, and kinda' a stab in the gut after coming off a deployment.

    Batman! Dadadadadadadada!

    I should have said "that" lunacy ... I've got plenty of others, in various states of "somewhat in progress."

    Batman! Dadadadadadadada!

    That's kind of how I knew to find it. I met a dude at a show several years ago who has built several movie cars; and he had his '66 Batmobile there. I thought maybe I should look at doing the Batboat ... but, I didn't find a hull for it before the lunacy passed.

    Batman! Dadadadadadadada!

    Dunno' about the name: but I think the zany thing is pretty cool lookin': But, then again I like the '58 Fury:

    Batman! Dadadadadadadada!

    GW Invader had a little two seater (forget the model) that you could get dressed up like a bat boat for a while back when the Michael Keaton film came out.

    Batman! Dadadadadadadada!

    It's a Glastron. Hammond had a hand in the customization. You can read a bunch about it HERE.

    Selectrim-Abandon or hook back up?

    Not hard to fix it, and it does help. I ran for quite a while without it (and they made models without trim), but it is helpful.

    Need help with my situation

    JAG seems more than necessary: I've had to work with range ops one time over something simliar (I'm not in service), and the Sgt Maj I was working with was being kind of a stickler. The OIC however, was cool when we showed him a mitigation plan (that wasn't hard to pull off). Maybe someone who...

    Need help with my situation

    The storage lot was off base, then? Private business? I'm wondering if you have some type of advocacy on-base that could help you push back because you were deployed under orders? Thank you for your service.

    Swim platform

    Some stuff HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE (<= I think closest to what you want) and what I did HERE. One of my boats had a used one from a salvage yard added, and I wound up refurbishing it.

    OMC shift cable variations and identification marks

    I know you can do a conversion; but I don't know much about the actual doing. HERE is where one was done on the forums. @Redrig might be able to answer some questions for you. But it's been a couple months since I've seen him on the forums.

    OMC shift cable variations and identification marks

    Model number is a full mechanical. If there's a hydro-mechanical drive on there, then someone's made a franken-motor (which isn't terribly uncommon - but weird going "backwards" in technology, mostly you see older engines with newer shift systems). I'm not sure the specific differences between...
