Re: '84 Wellcraft Repairs and Paint

Do I get to add "splashed" to my thread title now?:D

There was apparently a "glitch" with this forum software wherein it wouldn't let you change a thread title after the thread was X number of days old. I just added Splashed to yours just to see if it would work and I see that it did. Glad they fixed that annoying glitch.

Don't worry if the neighbors comment to you about a crazy woman making motor noises sitting in the shiny boat in front of the house!

It's just me!! :D

I'm totally game. The island sounds like a good choice. It's good to know that Evergreen has good food, we're over there often, but never actually stop at the marina.

Hey guys, Archbuilder and I are planning on meeting up at Lake Eufaula Oklahoma on the weekend of July 24-25. It would be cool if some of the other folks in the area could join us for a little Iboats gathering. Let us know if you are interested and we can give you the details. Hope we see some of yall there. ;)

BBO,

Not gonna be done and not gonna make the meet-up Golly-gee-hecky-darn. Was looking forward to it but now that it's happen'n can't be there. We will wait for another time. As I said in an earlier post Eufaula is one of the first places I will be going once I am finished and splashed. Being held up by age and heat. Just not a kid anymore. Still working and getting real close to water.
Have a great week end and meet. Take pic's and post it is required on this forum!

Yes arch - another day.

Been thinking that I need an adrinelin rush and was sure that Miss Morgan would get the juices going just sitting in the ride with that Merc. running. Then slap me up the side of the head and kick me where it counts when you throtlle up. Still a lot of summer left and I believe the lake will still be there so you guys have some fun - lift a cold one for me and we will hook up another day

Too bad you can't make it lrcustom. Whenever you get ready to come up, just give us a holler. I'm sure I'll still be boating well into October. This meet up is kind of impromptu anyway. Might just be me and Arch for all I know. Hope there's more though. I sent a PM to bacafrog. Does anyone know if woodonglass has a working boat? Wonder if Friscoboater would make the drive?

Arch and I can discuss a date for another meet up later on while we're soakin up some rays and chillin together this weekend. If anyone would like to meet at a different lake, I'm open to suggestions. Hopefully Arch and I will get some good pics this weekend. Will be cool to see a couple of iboats restorations side by side, although his is a better quality job.

Good luck with the hook up guys and enjoy your weekend. I'm off to the boat club later this evening and will be turning hydrocarbons into propwash all weekend! Woohoo! :D

I got some video too, but I can't do any editing til we get back home. It was pretty choppy and was bouncing my wife around as she took video, so I don't know if it will be worth a dang.

BBO Miss morgan is the sh-t even though she is small but that paint is awesome. It looks like you and arch are having a grat day (if thats you in the water ) Iknow me and the admiral did on the lake on our own without the kids for the first time in I don't know how long. Is your rig holding up good? after all that hard work?

Re: '84 Wellcraft Repairs and Paint SPLASHED

Fatfanny, she is holding up quite well. I did have a little throttle cable issue yesterday, and an electrical issue that I fixed with a toothpick:D That's about it. Anywho, we're just about to head out to do some skiing, tubing, and kneeboarding, that'll be the real test. She's gonna get a workout.
