Thanks Chuck. Words can’t describe how much pain we are feeling. It’s hard to believe the connection we make to our furry companions.
How's your day been?

Friends gave us this when we lost our little schnauzer Kaiser...
So sorry. They have us, no doubt.

I pulled the swim platform off of my boat today to sand and refinish it.
Next i removed the holland mi from it.
Holland is gone, lol. Keeping the name though.

No, I'm keeping the name. If your a fan of the pink panther movies think of how Kato always attacked the inspector. Lol.

Thought he was going to live forever!
I'm still not betting against him. If anyone can whoop the Grim Reaper, it is Chuck.
Technology has changed since that boat was built. Wonder if trim tabs would help the ride. Have no idea of the cost of an option like that would be. I just know they can make a boat run smoother at different speeds and reduce the bounce.
Do they make trim tabs for boats that size? I see them on flats skiffs all the time and they really help stop porpoising and can tilt the skiff slightly to help keep riders on the windward side drier.
Didn't Kato from the Green Hornet go on to have his own comic book series?
Paul really laughed over those Chuck Norris jokes. We were all fans of Chuck in this family. Wonder what happened?

Trim tabs would be an option. But the outdrive can be trimmed to get the boat to plane properly. There will be very little bounce with this boat, lol, she's a heavy girl. It's a boat known for plowing through the waves and not skipping over them like an aluminum boat.

Was 63 here today so outside to the boat I went. I sorted through all the gear that was on it and pitched what wasn't needed. Then I tried out the top to figure out how that worked. Put the battery on a charger. And installed a new cover. She's coming along.
Top is up, it's nice to have that to get out of the sun when fishing.
I gotta figure out how to straighten that one bow out.
New cover is on. I gotta get some more straps for that.

While I was working on the boat I had my scooter on the battery charger also. When I got done with the boat I took her out for a short ride. This thing is surprisingly quick! No clutch, no gears, just twist the throttle and go!
