    Default Getting ready for Crankfest


    I hope I've found way to tolerate the heat this weekend. Even though I have a hard top on my pontoon boat, heading downwind is still kinda miserable mid-afternoon so I have been working on a contraption to help keep us cool this weekend. I have a 1000w power inverter that I'm hooking to two yellow top optimas in parallel which will run my 24" pedestal fan on low speed for 5 hrs. continuous. I ordered a 35lb. /in. 12v high pressure water pump from Ebay and mounted it to the fan base. I'm using 3/8 clear plastic tubing to plumb the pump to 3 misting nozzles that I have zip-tied to the fan, using an automotive breather filter in my 5 gal. sump bucket to keep the pump clean, and an automotive fuel filter inline to keep the mist jets from stopping up. Dang thang is working in my carport like a champ and I can't wait to try it out Thursday.

    Looks like the weather should cool some. Here in western ky, the temps are suppose to be in the 80's, where it's been in the high 90's for about 2 weeks now.

    Regardless, yall behave down there is week. Wish I was coming but the boat is in the shop and the bill is not going to be pretty $$$$.........
