Hey Thunder. Lol. It’s black on white, but I thought it was blue too the first time I saw it. You should recognize it though. We’re Facebook buds now. Btw I used the drawing you sent me and have that SeaDeck on the way for the factory platform. I really appreciate that. It’s going to look great.
Ahhhh yeah, what's up Jason!!! Obviously wasn't firing on all cylinders last night.

Can't want to see the SeaDek...did you go direct or through SC Wake?
Hey Chris. lol I actually went directly to SeaDeck. They were super awesome to deal with. They needed to send me some proofs on my email and when the lady heard my email address she deduced I was law enforcement. That ended up saving me 15% so I'm going to be completely out the door with shipping at something like $375!

Welcome from Oklahoma! Kudos to your girlfriend! Any gal that will climb in a bilge for ANYTHING has my rrespect!
Just so you know shuruff, we have almost 375 members and only one bonifid Cobalt Chat girl. Her name is Katie and she's special to all of us. Most of all shes pretty special to Jeff. But I don't think she changes plugs?

But she would be partial to a pink motor, so if Jeff was to paint it with pink nail polish she probably would. Silly gurlz..
You are right, Katie is pretty special - see what I did there dear all the brownie points lol - but yeah mechanical tasks are "blue jobs" in the family.
Katie did help install the tower speakers, I try to get her involved as much as I can talk her into, but hell even I pay someone to crawl around in the bilge and do spark plugs, I will happily drink a beer and watch though.

That's a good deal! About $100 cheaper than what I paid.

Welcome to both of you. Very clean boat. No way you'd think it was 20+ years old.

You aren't kidding. And it has less than 300 hours. I'm on pins and needles because we should get to pick her up from the mechanic in a day or so. We did lots of fun upgrades.

I’m really hoping to squeeze something in at some point. I run a fence company along with my real job and we are ridiculously busy right now. That’s good because I can pay for boat stuff. It’s bad because I can’t always use the boat stuff.

Crazy. Mine is 2002 that I bought with 47 hours on it. Averaged 3 hours a year when i got her. go figure.
