That's another story for another time... and a MUCH larger bottle of Goose! LOL It was one of those deals where you look back and wonder which part was real. Maybe we really should plan a little Bird roast in June. It's been a long time since I've seen a few of you Floriduh guys. Flying into Sanford or FLL is easy enough.

I have a spare room or two if you bring the boy. Your always welcome.

Thanks, Scott. We may very well be down there for Fathers Day which is June 19. Haven't decided yet if we'll spend it with dad, but we'll come knocking if we do. It's been a long time.

I blew the pressure gauge line on a Trans and caught it quickly. Lost a half gallon of oil though what a mess.

This happened to me on my previous boat, a Striker 44. The Bourdon tube in the back of the OP gauge blew out and began filling the bridge console with hot 40wt oil. It was the drive oil pressure gauge so it was at 300 lbs or something like that. Wonderful. Huge mess. Took days to clean up and straighten things out.

We can get a few other members and have a get together.

Bumped just to make Mark feel better. :)

Just keep everyone out of the hospital.
