"Maiden Voyage of the Sea Nymph"

[SaltyBuckster]

Well,we took her out today.Boat runs like a top.No problems what so ever with the boat or trailer.Tops out at about 41 mph according to the Lawrance Elite 4 w/GPS.Only problems were a tiny pinhole on the right keel and one on the very back of the transom.Put a screw in both,no more leaks.Bilge pump worked from the switch,all gauges lit up.THEN,the tach and gas gauge quit working.Have to figure that one out.Other then that,the only problem was "NO FISH",lol.

Glad you had a great maiden voyage!!! Keep getting after them

 

[SaltyBuckster]

Kinda hard to xcatch a fish when you've been looking at this thing in the driveway and garage for 7 months,lol.And cruising along so fast that both the dogs are hiding under the console.I Love It !!!

Nice ride Salty,,,and some beautiful water for the maiden !!!

 

[SaltyBuckster]

Yea,the lake was like a sheet of glass.As soon as we loaded it up,started raining and never stopped until we got nearly home.My nephew thinks that he is a charter boat captain,until I told him that I wanted my money back for catching no fish,lol.

 

[SaltyBuckster]

Ok,the gas gauge and tach are fixed.Ground problem with both.Just stripped the old caulking off the deck.Going to caulk the deck seams then put the two interior panels back on and she's ready for the ocea.Also hooked up the marine two way radio incase Doc thinks we are lost,lol.

 

[SaltyBuckster]

Really?An antena,why don't you bring one of them Made in China 12' noodle rods and I'll wrap a wire around that.Don't for get the Driftsock.lol.
