    I sold the cables to the guy who bought the old motor that used to be on there. 😝

    Okay, my senioritis kicked in again. I totally forgot to measure for and order new throttle and shift cables. :rolleyes: This morning I went out and measured the boat. "B" is 8 feet and "A" is 3 feet, 2 inches. I then added 2 more feet to go around the engine. That brings the total to...

    Ya know what's weird? I've had this boat for 3 months now and I really haven't spent any time with it, other than working on the project stuff. I haven't even cleaned the inside since I purchased the thing. Odd. :unsure: This afternoon I went over and climbed into the helm seat for the...

    Well, I did start with a working boat. I just had to make it non-working and then go from there. 🙃

    Yeah, I can't remember if my old 1984 Winner bass boat with a 150 Mariner had a single or dual Teleflex setup. And that was a 70MPH boat. I do know that the donor Astro bass boat in my current project had a dual cable system on it, along with the XR6, straight from the factory. The XR6 was...

    Well, the Uflex hydraulic system and a new steering wheel are now ordered. Talk about Break Out Another Thousand... it was literally true this time. 😲 But the Seastar system would have been nearly double that much. 😵‍💫 The hydraulic unit will arrive in 2 days, the steering wheel in 5 days...

    Ah'm agoin' with Uflex! :D I read a lot and they're made in Sarasota, FL and get very good reviews. I actually called their customer service and got good info and great service from the rep.

    I went to my marine mechanic this morning and we talked about steering for the XR6 on my boat. The bottom line is that he recommended going hydraulic since I have to replace everything anyway. He suggested Seastar, which is very expensive. I'm researching Uflex also, which seems to be about...

    Been doing still more boat stuff. Keeping busy! :cool: After swapping the trailers, I put the old rusty one up for sale, along with the Minn Kota trolling motor that came with the MC. They sold fast! I guess I should have asked for more money! :LOL: This morning I gave away the 32 gallon...

    Anybody use OTA TV?

    My cable bill has gotten nuts. I'm researching Over the Air TV again. I live a fair distance from most commercial TV stations and have been looking at antennas and whatnot. Anybody still doing it 60s style? :LOL:

    Here's the MC sitting over at my buddy's place, awaiting final trailer adjustment to fit the boat. Hopefully it'll get done soon.

    Will this boat fit on that trailer?

    Right? :LOL:
