Bill, one thing we DO know how to do down here, and that's build boats!  And fix them, and do whatever to them... :shock:  :shock:  Although I have to say, Washington and Oregon do a pretty damn good job themselves... :thumright:  :thumright:

Was just telling Farley, I get a box this aft from an outfit in Quebec that I ordered Scott's rigging mesh, rigging boots, and batt trays from.  I open it up, there is 1 boot and 1 tray...yet, both invoices that came with the order say 2 boots and 2 trays!  I'm like...WTF?  Call the guy, leave a message, not expecting a return call today seeing it's Saturday.  I'm thinking he must have some dummass Frenchman picking his orders.  Little while later, the phone rings.  It's him.  He's French...



The other boot and tray will be on their way Monday...

LOL Pete!!!  Should have seen the Canadian postage labels on the damn thing...like he was sending an Uzi or something...

Oh, and the box was marked "Fragile"...or is that fra-gee-lay (Darrin McGavin, Christmas story)...

Damn this new photobucket...GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Anyway, Scott's horn grill and horns in the ebox upstairs...





Had to re-do the wiring a bit to accommodate and power the horn and dome light, but it came out alright...

I tell you what, I've been using pb for years...but they just may have lost a user!   :x  :x  :x  :x

Yeah they had the new version on beta about 6 months ago and it was a pain! Thats why I just started using the gallery on here to post. Much easier! Of course that doesn't work (well wait a minute, I guess you could link back to pics on here but couldn't make them appear in another forum) for other forums. Hmmmmmmm!

I link to other forums with pics here all the time - no different than photobucket 'cept we don't change it every month (we just shut it down for 5 years  :oops: )

Scotty,
This is what I'm thinking as far as helm layout.  Trim/Tilt upper right, key switches below that, kill switches on vertical face below key switches, then switch/breaker panel to the left.  What do you think?

Like the trim tilt location where you can see/feel.

Slice and dice :lol:  :salut:

Ah, they say we're under a tornado warning/watch/whatever until 3 pm.  We'll see.  Not gona be much of a "boat playing" day... :roll:

Have been wondering where the stereo/VHF mount/VHF antenna order has been (ordered from Star Marine Depot, I've dealt with them many times before), checked my order status, and says they are back ordered on 1 item.  So, morons, send me the other 3!!!  It's only been 2 weeks...
