    I'm headed for the water after work tomorrow to hopefully stick a few fish. Gonna hit some backwater off of Hwy 94 in St. Charles County. Mostly to try the boat out and see what modifications I need to do. But if a few fish swim in front of my arrow, so much the better.

    If I don't make it back, will someone come get me?? :confused:

    You can't put a boat on the water without giving her a name!!!


    Good luck and have fun!

    It was a short voyage. Like never left the trailer. Now I remember why I hate boats.*&^%##%^&* Motor wouldn't turn over or start with a New fully charged battery. Messed with it a little there and gave up. Came back home and found a loose wire on the starter. How did that get loose from when I bought the boat?:mad: Now it starts fine and runs great, in the yard!!

    I guess the maiden voyage will have to wait till tomorrow. :(

    Nah, I'm alive, I didn't make back on the water tonight. I had to run to the farm and get some things out of my trailer for the swap meet today. :)
