    Default Boat work


    Well, didn't have much to do this afternoon so worked on my automatic livewell aerator, that hasn't worked since I had my boat transom rebuilt. Turns out they hooked it back up wrong and didn't even connect it to a power source. Next week, I go for installing my new down scanner, Lowrance Elite-4X dsi.

    how about….let someone else do the work on the boat…spend the hours on catching fish, and as few hours as possible just fishing…...

    It was kindda fun. I didn't want to do it while it was hot. I know a lot more about what the back end of my boat looks like now and I didn't want to pay someone else more per hour than I make myself to do something I can do myself and give me a little education. The fun will come. LOL. I'm laughing already.

    ya see, that's what it comes down to….skill level…when ​ try to do something mechanical…it takes me 3x as long as it should…bad words come out( sorry PS) …and usually it costs me twice as much in time and parts as inevitably..I will break something else while trying to fix the original problem…….I admire you folks who do all this stuff yourself…you are truly talented folks…….
