It's a good one. Transducer works even on plane. I got Bluechart base maps and bought Lakevu and FL/Bahamas cards separately. Looks like it's going to work really well for nav to Bimini!

I just bought the g2 card for eastflorida over to the bahamas and for the mod Atlantic area including nc..

They were 100 bucks each.. They are suppose to set a navigation route from point a to point b

No, but that would have been cool.

Spent the day adding things. New boat name vinyl, naked feet vinyl, and Veve guide on's with Mad Dog pads. I had a heck of a time installing the Veve's solo. Getting the spacing right was a real PITA and I have a feeling I will be adjusting again after I take the boat out tomorrow and see them in action for real.

Left ladder down and towed. I am now buying a new one for my jet boat today!

Used our new grill set up and the food was awesome and very surprised how quick it had our lunch ready; able to fit a pack of dogs, brats, and two stuffed chicken breasts...

Slid her into her new home for the summer, it’s been a loooonnnnngggg time since I had to pull her out last September 15th! First cruise later today, couldn’t be happier.

Built some new flag poles for my new rod holders. Turned out pretty cool I think. Off to the lake now!

Daddy daughter date at Lake Gaston today.

 

[vanmurray]

Installed head storage shelf, hangers and some swag. Much better.

Rain in NC so no lake day. Instead it was speaker with LEDs install day. Not the most high end, but they sound good and I think they look good.

I installed most of my new seadek yesterday and this morning, it looks great and my crew and guest like it. The no shoes on it rule lasted for the first boarding only. I’m not a fan of rules like that, instead i just remind family and friends/guest to use their common sense. Pics to follow, just got busy and didn’t have time to take pics. Here is the only one I could find with some seadek in it. The color match with the carpet and seats is good imho.

New scupper valve day!!!

Made a ‘socket’

 

[the MfM]

Plan was to use a pipe wrench.

Decided to add a brace to hold it while I used the ratchet to tighten it down.


Always good times when you use a welder, 2’ pipe wrench and 3/4” drive sockets to work on your boat.

I just kept it company tonight waxing the tow vehicle. The buffer works great on the boat; but carnauba and elbow grease did the trick on the truck! Very tired now.

Finally got around to finishing my underseat rope and dock line storage. I decided to go a different route for my dock lines.

5.11 Tactical large molle insert
With 2 sets of 3x3 AR mag pouches

In the pic I've got some 20ft dock lines in a few of them and some padded bungee style lines in others. I think theyfit pretty well.

Think the wife will notice when install this next week?
