Cindy Lou being revived.

[CATCH AND EAT]

Towed Cindy Lou to Chinook Marine a week ago Saturday. Made the appointment prior to that on Thursday with the assurance that they were only a week behind. So while on vacation I thought my boat to be in good hands. Decided to stop in and check on when they might get a start and Jeff looked a little puzzled. Thumbed through his work orders and found.......NOTHING! [img]graemlins/eek13.gif[/img] Boy I felt like throwing a party. [img]graemlins/berry.gif[/img] Anyways after he had to sit through my lecture on when a new boat arrives and you have had previous instructions as to handling the repairs you think, dah....at least take a look at the boat.

He (Jeff) rushed out to the boat and grabbed the notes I had left. Talking to Pop's within earshot of Jeff must have lit a fire. Got a call the next day and he said they started work on Cindy Lou. [img]graemlins/applause.gif[/img] As suspected the manifold on the starboard side was blown internally and the Port side was starting to leak a bit too. Riser on the Starboard is junk and one of the motor mounts has problems too. So far we are at $1500 bucks with the additional repairs that I requested as maintence.

Hopefully she will be back up and running to fish the ocean again before the end of the month. I miss her and bouy 10 just was not the same without her.

Thanks to Pops for letting me used his little bayliner to do 10. At least it was not a total loss. Just miss the ocean. :smile:
