I took him for a ride, I wasn't convinced he was going to need a lesson....
He drove joes xr2002. I thought he was going to be our video guy who doesn't make videos.. Lmao

Roy
Roy you shoulda wrote "he drove the heck out of Joe and Matt's XR - once he got it started lol!" And he's still working on honey-dos to pay for the Rally.... Maybe video coming soon! :))

I drove Baitcasters' XB03 too - into the 65 mph range 1st try.... Gotta start somewhere..... Prolly should have bribed a certain bud with more pie and I mighta got some seat time in a certain yellow XB02...

Donna called me, and asked if it is normal to sleep in the boat when you first get it!!!!!! She said Richard hasn't slept in the house since they got home....
I told her just to get use to it.... There is a mistress in their relationship now.
Lmao.

Sorry guys... been 'streamin for the last 5 days with the wife and limited wifi connectivity....

Ed - will need to look you up once the boys and I go get a line wet on Livingston..... likely will break the motor in somewhere near Key Puckett's shop in Dallas....

Brian - haha!

Tray - who knows - we may go to Ray Hubbard to break in the motor..... will stay in touch! Would like very much to meet you and Ed also!

Craig... pix following.... and yes I have made a trip to storage as many times as possible since getting the boat!!!!

Roy - 29th wedding anniversary tomorrow.... been married so long she doesn't even know / care if I'm around..... just as long as the checkbook is available, and gas is in the car to go see the grand-daughter lol!!!!

P.S. - I don't want to hear any shetz from you about the Ranger sticker that is still on the back of my truck! The Ally sticker is going on it tomorrow lol !!! And yes I do realize that I need longer bolts to hold the motor on... those were good enough to get me to storage!

Guy came by the storage unit tonight and he got a look at the Allison.... he mentioned that he was from Tenn, and boy was he drooling!!! Donna took the last one here with the iPhone, and he also took a few pix to show his buds!

Gonna take the boat to Key for final rigging on Monday or Tuesday, depending on wx...... prolly Monday if that front has blown through and carried all of the moisture with it....

Where's your lower unit
At the house; Key Puckett recommends a few mods to improve driveability, including blunting the nose cone a bit and putting an Ally cut (as I remember) on the skeg.... Will be taking it up to Dallas for him to send out to a local shop for the mods....
