Please don't interrupt your "day job" for my projects however, especially if this is your busy season. You gotta make hay while the sun shines and we're getting by OK at the moment. |

Wayne, as far as I'm concerned, your 'projects' are part of my day job. |

Yes, especially if boats are involved. Congratulations Tim. True, Wayne. She put up with buying and collecting bass guitars for years,. i think she simply tolorated (for the most part) my addiction. But it seems this is something she can get in to. Pontoon boats are great for taking out large numbers of friends and family so she'll probably like that aspect of it also. We'll be heading back over towards St Croix in the next couple of weeks so if you'd like me to do some more "alternator testing", we have an opportunity coming up. :-) I've changed some of my procedures a little to make sure that I don't get both sets of golf cart batteries charging at the same time. Best way to get in touch is at my winlink EMAIL address. Well, the wife is really getting excited over the pontoon. I jsut wish we could have some decent weekend weather to take it out. It's hard to do right now because of the ever threat of rain and I'm tied up with the farming season repairs even on Saturday. You gotta get it while you can. This is changing my whole course of action seeing I was wanting to outfit the 23' Marquis, because I think she wants to take the barge on the river cruise because of it's spaciousness and stability, not counting and easier ride. So she couldn't stand it any longer and went shopping for an air matress. I find that hard to imagine because it looks like she wants to camp on the float instead of finding a place to park the thing and get a motel. So, she's already purchased an air matress, and I have ideas on making a better canopy top instead of the bimini. Something with side curtains that can be rolled down (Think PBR, John!) with netting in windows. Then comes the loads of batteries which the Johnsos 10a. Stator won't handle to charge effectively, so I have some ideas on making a small DC generator, or I might go AC and use an inverter for a charger. Too much other stuff to think about for the moment. This is going to be interesting though. And oh yes, Wayne. We'll get together on some ideas when you make it to St. Croix.

I even did the GM3/2 course and tried to change my rate but no dice. When they kicked me back to the CG I tried for an 83 footer, ended up on a white one out of Norfolk bouncing around the North Atlantic looking for subs. We did keep the godless commie *******s south of the Wilson Bridge tho. (not so sure about the Chesapeake and lower potomac) Thanks. -- John H For a great time, go here first... http://tinyurl.com/ygqxs5v |
