Redneck guy working at the Marina.  I saw this truck and wondered what the story was...





I also saw these guys up on the high wire yesterday.

Outlaw Poker Run / 80 Cigarette Boats at our marina.  They race from party to party around Galveston Bay.

Prodigal hauled out and blocked up to work on through hulls.  The water-maker needs two through hulls, one for in and another for out.  Also i have a third through hull for the transponder depth gauge that needs work.  I'm replacing the current transponder upgrading to work with my new Navigation instruments.  Guess what - boat problems.

#1.)  trying to install the Water Maker through hull we ran into a problem.  We are going to have to cut out some fiberglass in the engine room.

#2.)  the new transponder didnt fit.  we had to order one for delivery Monday.

#3.)  the bottom paint was peeling off and had to be replaced.  (this was not scheduled or expected)  First you build a tent and then sand off all the old paint.  Next apply Interlux 2000
