    Doing a little clean up. Had the charger roped and zip tied to the fuel tank. I suspect this was not up to mariner code. While I am restricted to land access only, I thought I would try to fix it. There ain't much room left under the turtle hull with all the junk in there, but I got the charger mounted and the mass of wiring zip tied into some semblance of order. Next I will tackle the hood area and see if I can organize the storage and wiring that calls that end of the boat home.

    Looks like you have everything on that new boat but the kitchen sink. Oh if there was just a little more room.
    Life is not measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

    When I keep my gratitude higher than my expectations I have a good day

    Yes, but not mounted. It's a 4hp mercury. Haven't found a need for it no longer than it takes to crank up a limit.

    I actually use the 4hp for low water duck hunting, but could use it as a kicker. I have looked at the mount and see a way to mount it with no additional holes and steer with the terrova. I may do it one of these days.

    Your wiring makes a shop teacher proud!!!

    Yes, you should have seen his Radio shack when he was doing a lot of Ham Radio. He always tried to keep the wires nice and clean. What was it Randle, WB5YYM? I still have KE3KZ

    Yes. That is the call sign. Haven't radioed since Joseph was in elementary school. Last fling was receiving packet data from the MIR space station for Joseph to use in a school project. We took a big time lightning strike and I packed up all the surviving equipment and put it in storage and it hasn't seen daylight since. It also got my top of the line pc...33mhz processor with a 105 meg hard drive Dude that thing was 2500 bucks back in the day.

    Man, I remember paying $200 bucks for 4 megs of RAM. I had one of those also. 486DX2 66mhz. I thought I was blazing with my 28.8 modem. LOL


    Agrihawg and I used to do the Tiger thing...I think that was the company name. It was a magizine called Tiger or something. They had barebones systems and ALL kinds of hardware. We were into our computers as much as we used them. lol. Computers just aren't as much fun as they were back then...not as much to tinker with. I guess thats a good thing, I tend to mess it up worse BEFORE I fix it. lol

    Yep, my first one was a Heathkit similar to the original Apple IIE, a whopping 32k of ram and a 5.25" floppy drive. I thought I had died and gone to heaven when finally got a 286 with a VGA color monitor and got rid of the monochrome stuff. Funny thing is that machine seemed just as fast as my current laptop with 16Gb of ram in it, guess it is all the junk code in the Microsoft operating system. But my Macbook is not much faster, so guess Apple is starting to let junk build up in their code as well.
