I confess...
« on: August 09, 2011, 11:39:49 AM »
I did it. :mrgreen:
I've been lurking on the forum for about a year, was looking for a 19-6 to restore, but yesterday acquired a 1970 model Aquasport 17 project boat.  It's a long story, so for now I'll just start by saying that a  kind young man needed to get rid of his project that had never gotten started, I contacted him, and in the end brought the boat,  motor, and trailer home.  Titles were transferred yesterday, so today I begin work on the boat.

Cheers,
Nate

Scott,
It's getting a little old...I would like to get SOMETHING done!

Aaron, Pinellas has probably fared the best.  Just saw flood warnings for northern Hillsborough and Pasco...

Want to see that 19-6 full of reds and snook when it quits...of course, could be ladyfish and sail cats!!

Bet we've had 5-7 inches between yesterday and today.  I'm about 3 miles east of Weeki Wachee Springs...

Did not mean to derail the post.  Welcome catndahats!  Good luck with the project.

Easily five inches here and still going, just like the energizer bunny......

My back yard is like a lake

no problem.  I am jealous, it has not rained here in six months.  The good news is there is no grass left to mow.
