Getting Closer To Splashdown

[IrishAyes]

The time is getting closer. Hopefully the IrishAyes will be in the water in two weeks.

Had to have the deck repaired over the winter due to a soft spot in it. The repair came out great.

Today, BobG and I met FishinDude (Darrin) at the boat. I would like to say that Darrin helped me replace my waterpump and thermostats but if I said that, I would be lying as Darrin did most of the work. I can not thank Darrin enough for what he did. What a great guy.

I have new electronics to install, the bottom needs a coat of anti-fouling and the boat needs a good scrubbing down. All will be done in time for the striper run.

Here's to a fantastic season for all. 

Darrin, thanks again, I own you some drinks Saturday.

Big sale on bottom paint.. at West marine

[IrishAyes]

Got it already from Matt of Task Marine. Was cheaper than the West Marine sale price, same paint too.  

But I do appreciate the heads up on the sale.

That's great Capt Joe!  Good people on this list, willing to help each other out!

  FishinDude!

how are you going to choose your time between the IrishEyes and the Angela Rose II

[IrishAyes]

That will be a tuff juggling act, but it will get done. 

I may have to jump from one boat to the other. I just hope I don't have to fishing too much.

Sounds like a plan Joe.Now we are all scrambling to get in the water(a week for me too).
