I know, its taken by the Aircraft Carrier Hancock.
She started out a week ago Weds. as a boat purchase. Nice little 2002 15-48 Express with a layout that I wanted. She came with a 02 Johnson 4 hp prop, 36 lb thrust Motorguide Bill Dance edition, nice little trailer, 2 seats with posts, batteries, anchors and winches, and life jackets. She was sitting on the side of the road and I went back to pick her up after work for a song. Older couple had bought her new and pulled her back and forth to a little CA lake nearby. Like new.
Sat., I drove to Doniphan and picked up a nice little 2000 Johnson 25/20 jet with electric start to complete the project. It was pouring rain and I had to go to TN for a wedding, the motor made its first trip to TN in the back of the Sequoia.
Last week I stripped the anchor winches off, took the old trolling motor off and the 4 Hp Johnson.
This weekend I made some pvc bows and put a cover on her. I moved the trailer winch forward and shifted the whole boat up on the bunks more. Changed out the tongue jack with one that has a side handle instead of the top handle knuckle buster. Adjusted the front riser down so the boat rides on the rear bunks square, before it sit too high and only the rear of the boat was on the bunk. In the process of filling holes drilled with pop rivets. Replaced the winch strap, old one was rotted at hook. Put new yellow roller on winch. Put a couple of new transom straps on, something the other guy never used.
Transfer on the titles may be a problem, License offices may close soon.
Several more things to go. Surely I will get to stay home soon.....
