Hi guys I'm back on the forum again i have been busy being a father soon to become father again.

And I'm studying again (nursing) so my income is now half what it was before.
It takes loads of my time, and the first thing I had to skip is boating (cost money and Internet ting because it costs time)

But it is a good summer out here in Holland now so it started to itch again so I'm fixing the engine now as cheep as posible, and maby i will be boating again this year.

Things done al ready cleaned carb checked water pump removed fuel pump (has to be replaced).

Things to be done new paint job install pull start again (the plastic thingy has worn out and also the small steel rods they are completely flat.

And had a sett back because the engine fell from its stand. and the throttle got damaged I hope no more damage is done but i can check that tomorrow

Being a Husband, Daddy, and a student sure will put a big dent in your boating! Glad all is well with your ever growing family! Enjoy...

You definitely have a full plate, Turin! Glad you made it back to iboats ... just remember, it is cheaper to be here, than it is to actually be out on the water ... so you can always live vicariously through the other iboats members! ;)

WOW! Good to see you post again Turin! With a family to boot!
Sorry your boating had to take a back seat but it is for the best of reasons.
Enjoy those little rascals a lot cause like it's already been said those times just fly by!:p
Soon they will be demanding that you take them out on the water, Enjoy!
