You know how many Chiefs fans that are going to be floating around Truman and LOZ are going to see that boat and gona have to admit "That does look pretty cool " (Yea, even Bugman !)
Thanks anyway for the suggestions though.

PS I did consider in honor of getting Bwilaub's feathers ruffled, a nice crimson would look good "rolling the tides of Truman !"

Ok Rugs, I see you need more time to think over the Cowboys color scheme.:D But if you must go with the pony colors at least you will turn the heads of Chiefs fans on the water and I'm all for that!!!! You might get rocks thrown at you at the ramp....That's the way they treat pony fans around here. Now if you want to be treated like a king on the ramp, You might want to reconsider America & Gods team for your color choice!!!!!!!!!!!! Wouldn't it be nice to feel the pride of a true winner? I mean after all those years of disappointment, wouldn't you like to feel the pride of the Cowboy nation? Just a thought. Just giving u a little Sh*t my friend, It is going to look top notch when you are finished!!!

Well, I pulled an old 1970 something Min Kota 85 trolling motor out to see if I could rig it up get the motor to at least spin. I played around with it jumping wires and found out it was only the Fwd. Off Rev. switch wasn't working, so I pulled the boat into town and put it in the water to see how the motor would push it around. With a couple of alligator clips, I was able to cruise around the lake The speed control worked fine in forward and rev. I just had to jump the wires opposite for reverse. Don't think I'll have a problem finding a switch that will work. Probably won't work so well in heavy wind or currents, but gives me more options to get it on the water while I wait for the tune up kit to fix the Seaking.
If all works out with Bob, I'll be cruising around Spring Fork lake marking fish with a fish finder soon
