Is it a quick board?

I forgot to say that the boat showed the water temp at 74 on Wednesday. Man it was chilly.
What size did you get Berg? And what size are you? I just need to know for comparison purposes, lol.
Ha... You ever heard Roy D Mercer - How bigga ol boy are ya? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yt6oBElJlBs Doesn't throw it out until after 3:00.
Got the 58" - says for riders 190+. I'm 6'3" and about 205. Other one I rode was a smaller one but I don't recall if it was the 52 or 54. (Russ?) Overall this one is very close to my Inland Surfer Squirt which is 5' and can free ride me no problem.
I still would like to pick up a true surf style board though.
Ok thanks I'll let home know!

First pull down to the upholstery shop for final design and layout - man what a difference compared to my little half ton.

Tear down only took a few hours but a solid 5 beers. Don't think i have a knuckle with skin left intact either. Found few more cut wires and a few more broken pieces from the bastards trying to reef on stuff and tear it out... :-x
I don't think I can get my hand to half of those screws on the interior

Some parts were super easy - and then a few other pieces made up for those. Had to remove some ballast lines and vented loops in the rear gunnel and the gas filler cover panels to get to some of the bolts. Notice the pylon is out? Had to pull that too in order to get the backrest off. Mine is indeed solid so going to swing by a machine shop and have them shorten it down.
Looking good man, Yes its amazing with a 1 ton does compared to a 1/2 ton. Pulls like a beast
Berg while it is all apart it is time to bust out the buffer on the interior.
Yeah - good call. Need to do a little fiberglass repair in the bow as well. Not sure if it is just from normal use/abuse, age, or perhaps too much ballast sitting on the seat but the support rail under the playpen on one side cracked and has some give to it.
I'm sure 6-800lbs sitting up there on top of the seats isn't healthy. Thinking I'll go with a triangle bow bag up there and see how that goes.
My little helpers.
Attachments are not cooperating Russ - need to do Photobucket IMG tags.
Berg the silver linning in all this with your boat is, you will have a Rebuild boat now, almost like new. All new upholstery, and an even better stereo then you had before. Kinda like a bunch of free upgrades. Thats the glass 1/2 full side of me, very rare but it does exist LOL.
So I got home from Russia yesterday and woke up to this this morning at the lake house. I think today is going to be a fun day...

We got out on Sat. Air 82, water 69. Left phone in the truck so no calls but no pics either.
I'm more jealous now.. Stop it now.. I just checked our weekend weather... It forecasts rain on SAT and Sunday again... oh well.. I need to take day off during the week LOL
Just my 2 cents, air temp was 75, water temp was 48. Wish I was where you guys were, but hey at least I got out for the first time all year
Mike, glad you could get out.
