    Finally found a water pump for Little Blue, AKA Dads Speck Magnet Lord knows I miss that man, July will be 5 years since he went home. it's 14 ft open plain ole fishing boat,Dad loved this old boat, had a 25 Elgin for years but needed parts could not be found so he just put the old Merc on it and kept on fishing.
    Wish I could get a dollar for every speck that has been in this boat. It has a 66 Merc 9.8. Put the water pump in this morning and took her out for a spin, It has been about 7 months since she was started and all is well, started on the second pull. Now I can fish and work on the Center Console at my leisure.

    Ya done good CD, and glad to hear you have the little boat up and going. You got a better motor on the CC than the Chrysler. Easier to find parts. have fun with it.

    Yea the big boat is a huge upgrade from the last project. And the little blue boat has caught more specks in Osceola county than any other boat. Dad made sure of that. Going to be sick *cough*cough* Wednesday and hit the lake in it to see if it still has the good jewjew.

    The last time we had it out I think we found out that the boat still had it! We got our limit of 25 each, could of had 50 each if not for the pesky limit.Name:  10991060_1560479940901231_1923881102660290556_n.jpg
