Engines Are Off!!

Well we have been so busy we haven't had much time to work on the boat.  New job requires travel and we just got home from to weeks in Mexico.  Had a great time with two of our daughters and their families and our friends from Canada. 

On Thanksgiving morning I was able to remove both of the outboards and took them to the mechanic on Friday.  He will let me know what the repair bill looks like and we will go from there.  In addition the Transom board on the left engine is cracked and will need a new one made.  It is made out of wood and appears to be fiber-glassed over the top.  I pulled the swim deck to get to the motors and removed all of the Trex Dec, my friend and neighbor Larry is going to put aluminum treads on the deck to save some weight.  I am also going to have him look at building a third pontoon to go in the middle and to the rear of the boat.  I am hoping this will help level the boat.  I also could use it as a grey water tank if I needed to.  We have been able to just let the grey water go into the lake, but they may change. 

Happy Thanksgiving to you all!
