Preparing for a great summer

[Tombie]

Well - Working away gives plenty of "planning" time - or so it appears!

So I've been looking at what I can do to sort the Cat and make it ready for some well earned 'boat therapy' in the upcoming months (currently Snapper fishing is banned).

This was 3 months ago... I started by fitting a new Gunwale Rubber.





Then had the Motors fully serviced, New impellers, Control cables and just had the carbies rebuilt - The engines run like a dream now.

And then decided I hate pulling anchors! So I ordered this - I have not finished installing yet.


And then I named her.... (She's never had a name )



And to make it a bit easier to get aboard after a swim


Fitted one of these rocket launchers... So handy...


Chucked a new Number plate on the trailer


Ordered a new Wheel.


A couple of new SOLAS 4 Blade Props...


On the "To Do" list are still:

- New Stereo System
- Redo Carpet on Deck
- Polish Hull
- Fix a few chips in the Gel coat
- Fit the new Switch Panel
- Line forward Cabin

But she's nearly ready to rock!!!!
