You guys are funny. I have an awesome girl and the only poon I chase now has scales. I have tarpon on the brain worse than most, hence my name. As to the marriage, my girl is as cool as they come. In fact, yesterday when I asked, Babe, what do you think about me buying this hull? she responded by saying why don't you buy it and put a big bow on it for my wedding present.....

I'm not sure what's going on, but something is  :scratch:


Marry her -----quick

Doc...concur wholeheartedly.

Between this nice young couple and Jessie and Paige...the future looks bright around here :thumright:

You know, Scott, if you posted that pic of the scoop strainer on THT, it would turn into a 10 page thread will multiple that the builder was lower than whale chit on the evolutionary scale...

Carry on.  Love the cleanliness for the pics.  That's a mark of a good shop, 'cause we all know it gets damn dirty inside that hull... :salut:  :salut:

Thanks Rick!

Looks can be deceiving...that is actually a new, green, energy-saving passive bilge pump. When the boat gets on plane, all of the water inside rushes to the back and is scooped out into the ocean :thumright:

Shrewd eh?

 :wink:  :wink:

That's hilarious  :lol:

Really though... what's it for??  Why are you installing a clamshell there?  Livewell? :scratch:

Speaking of holes in the hull of your boat... After I installed the bilge pump/plumbing in my rig (before I ever put her in the water), I decided I'd fill up the bilge with water and test the pumps out.  To my surprise, water was flowing out of 6 3/8" holes randomly drilled through the hull  :shock:

There was someone else that wanted this boat where the boat was previously employed (it was a work boat), and I theorize the holes in the bottom were an act of jealous sabotage when said person didn't get the boat.  Needless to say, I patched them up.  It was a good thing I decided to install bilge pumps before I did a water test.  I don't think I would have made it past the dock   :roll:

Paige was over my shoulder reading this, and promptly cooed to pieces.  She says she loves you Scott  :wink:

Hey, thanks Jess! It feels good to be loved :thumright:

Paige is a great girl, you guys make a terrific couple...looking forward to seeing you :lol:  :lol:

PS...the clamshell pickup is for the Dorado-style livewell.

Remember Jess, almost all livewell pick-ups are scoop, or high-speed, pick-ups.  On plane, will fill a livewell WITHOUT the pump running!

Maggie looks over my shoulder sometimes too... :shock:
