    Time to do some rework

    Wow I looked at when my last post was and could not believe it had been 5 years. During that time I have used the Parker each season with few issues. Most of my time has been taken doing a frame off restoration mod on my 65 Pick up. This year the Parker is letting me know she has been neglected...

    Teak Floor for Wheel House 2520MV

    Shop space has gotten a bit tight. Too many projects and a lot of equipment for airplanes, boats, cars and household chores. I am working with the CEO to find the time to add 40 feet. With 260 days on the road last year time is the issue. It was good to spend 4 days doing something other than...

    Teak Floor for Wheel House 2520MV

    Project completed. Easy to remove for cleaning, everything interlocks so it does not move around and best of all no more slipping.

    Teak Floor for Wheel House 2520MV

    Well as some of us have found out the cabin floor can be quite slippery when feet are wet and you are in a hurry. Since buying my 2520MV I have been considering solutions. I have rejected some because they were too expensive, some because I did not think they would wear well and some because I...

    Boat trailer inspection near Solomons

    Had to take mine to Tristate two years ago. I am in St. Leonard and that was the closest. They were great, reasonable and only kept it a day.

    Noodling for catfish anyone?

    I am presently in Columbia SA. The locals talk about Catfish that are over 120 pounds residing in the rivers. They fish for them using live bait (small fish about 12 inches long) on 6 inch hooks attached to 1/2 inch rope. It is a different world

    Engine Control Project being considered

    Brian, I run my own business doing contract and consulting work on executive jets. Worked for Gulfstream for 26 years and decided it was time to go at my own pace. I had a sail boat at Stoney’s ten years ago. It was ok just a long way up the river. B-Faithful, when I re-powered I considered a...

    Engine Control Project being considered

    Thanks Kevin, Follow through is assured in that I have removed the old controls and have no intention of fixing the problems that caused the removal. The pictures are as I remembered. Are those Teleflex SR controls? The pictures remind of warmer times. I ran mine onto the trailer in Solomon’s on...
