Default Someone motivate me please

I have this new boat sitting in my driveway and I NEED to replace the head gasket right now, but can't find the motivation to do it for some reason. Please help me remember what it's like on the big blue.

Rock Pile anyone...........

Chicken Ranch drive through

Had the pleasure of having a Daddy/Daughter day mid week last year on a beautiful ocean

Then there was this one day coming back in from Tuna Town. The ocean was rough as a cob, as you can see , and I had Tuna to cark and a beer or two to drink

Who can forget the mighty sea creature a good friend of mine wrestled in from the depths


Get off your arse and get that motor purring. It will be time to roll before you know it

Well Gregotis, if watching the sun go down 16+ miles offshore in the middle of a warm summer eve, watching as the sky lights up with the red and pink colors of an incoming storm, knowing you are surrounded by 1000's of miles of saltwater, and your only neighbors are a couple of salmon trollers getting ready to spend the night, the water is flat, the intensity of motoring your way back home thru the darkness begins to set in, wondering if your electronics will guide you safely back thru the jaws...........if that doesn't motivate you.............then you should just quit now and buy a "for sale" sign.

Hurry up and Git'r Done bud, those days are fast approaching.

Come on Greg "Git er Done".

So far I've collected and installed a fuel flow meter, FF, new gps unit, and even replaced the power steering belt on the Reinell. I even got the stereo working.

Had it out for a cruise around Sovies Island last weekend and loved it.

Let me know if you need a hand with that head gasket.

OK OK I'l get it going now, I appreciate all the help. I don't know what's happened to me but it's time to just do it. I know this is where I need to be and I don't want to miss out on all of the action.

The trip we made out there Rod was one of the best I've ever done, coming in from knocking your nice halibut off and then working our way back in in the dark was awesome. I even have a guy putting in a motor in the rain beating me to it now, I'll see you on the river San Anita.

Thanks guys
