Dennis,
How did you get past the stretch on the inland water way between Hoppies Marina and Paducah? I think it is 210 miles long with no fuel. What was your secret?

Aqua Marine Decking, Grey-for Stairs leading into the salon and floor coverings for both bathrooms.
These are pieces we decided not to use. They are nicely cut, look great and are very comfortable.
Stairs-$50 plus shipping
Bathrooms-$100 plus shipping
No, but it does not fit securely in the mount. It takes little effort to pull it out. I am concerned that a bit of vibration will put it in my wake in no time.
New Topic: Who has a stern thruster?

Notes: Engine hours are not the same. The port engine has a new ECU and the hours about reflect our...
"the river was full of debris" -excuse; that works for me. If the weather holds this weekend we are headed south again. I will try and take a few pics of our boat performance on the trip.
