i think it was around $200.

I just replaced my cockpit sink in my 06 340. I went through a Sea Ray dealer. They still have them in stock.

Well after some time of being inactive, and some time of just reading threads, I thought it was time to reintroduce myself. At the time I went under the name of Beerman due to being in the beer industry. I think the last time I actively posted, I had just lost my job and had a daughter...

I ended up needing a new housing this summer. I had my impellers replaced the year before and this year in the middle of summer i was heading out to our favorite shallow area and I dropped a belt on the starboard engine. I limped back to the slip on one motor, the one without power steering and...

That is how they are. Depending on how much extra "stuff" you have onboard, they can be really low.

We will be going this year. We skipped last year and went to Milwaukee instead. It is smaller but gives the wife and I a chance to get out. It is usually within a day or two of her birthday so we make a weekend of it.

Uh Oh cleat envy. Thats one thing I hear from a lot of people is how nice my cleats are. You know what they say about a guy with big cleats?

Must be all the lake flie remains that makes em shine. I have not actually touched the cleats.

I was just up on Wednesday for a job interview in Appleton and drove by.

Well its gone now. I suspect they finnally drove it up river as its not on shore at the marina. To see that boat in person would make most of you cry. Vents are boken off the side, the bottom is pealing and the hard top has a huge crack in it. It never gets washed, they just keep downloading...

Yep, thats ice. Normally its out by now. Mercury Marine is less than a mile up river from here. I am kind of surprised its still in. This boat is soo beat up. It's a shame.

Classic. This is Mercury's 44da that they test the Zeus drives on. Must be seeing what ice will do to them. This is at my marina 2 slips from where mine usually sits.

I tow my 280 with a 07 Chevy 2500HD with the 6.0ltr and 6spd auto trans. While I tow 100 miles one way twice a year it does a pretty good job. Normal driving without towing it averages 15-16mpg and with the boat and trailer around 9mpg. We ordered the trailer with electric over hydraulic brakes...

Thanks for all the positive thoughts. I was the sales manager for 2 counties. Before that it was 4 yrs of sales. My degree is in auto mechanics but I don't want to go back into that. I have made some good friends over the year in this business and who knows. Right now we are putting our house up...

We are firm believers in everything happens for a reason. We will see what happens. My youngest will be 18 in December and my current wife and I have always said when he is 18 we are gone. This might make us actually do it.

I was let go of my job yesterday morning. Looks like its time to move to a warmer climate.

I'm glad you had a good weekend. Just a tip for next year, look for a lake somewhere else. Lake Delton is worse than the river and no campgrounds on it. Only high priced condos.

You can have the jackets stowed. As far as the wake from the sightseeing boat, that is the narrows and is slow no wake now. It is not as bad.

Bring long pants and a jacket, Tom. I think Madison is calling for a high of 67. Have a good trip.
