Anyone have anything excited planned for your boats in the colder months? Unless of course you're boating all winter! :)

I am doing my engine rebuilds, painting my outdrives, new trailer tires and hopefully EoH brakes. The plan is to be ready for the Texas Outlaw Challenge and hopefully a trip to LOTO for the shootout.

My work will be in the spring before first run:

1.  Rebuild Holley carb. on HP500.*
2.  New impeller on sea pump.*
3.  Possible tune-up. (already changed plugs this past July).
4.  New bunk carpet on the 2 x 12"s.  (not in a hurry on this).

Other than that, everything still running / flying strong.   ;D

*In the fine print:
Will be requiring assistance from a gentlemen known to us as Jay. 8-)

I am planning a complete tear down and rebuild on the pontoon boat. top to bottom. the when it is back together I am going to build a rear bench for it and a new console.

1.  Comprehensive annual service performed by an expert.
2.  Book an all-inclusive luxury Cruise for Deja Blue on this:

That is a big ship!

Find someone to take my boat off the trailer to store for a few weeks so I can tweek the trailer.
- freshen the bunks
- redesign the rear of the trailer so it does not hang so low
- repaint
- strip, and powdercoat the wheels
- couple new tires
- couple new bearings

Redo the sundeck upholstery, hoping to be able to fix the one seam that is jacked up instead

And of course the typical tune-up, fluid changes, etc. Oh and fix a couple little nicks on the strakes thanks to lake belton

hit Evan up and see if he will let you put yours on his lift while his is in the shop!!  ;)

Are there that many stumps or what were you hitting? I always thought Belton was a pretty "safe" lake. Never had problems with my Monterey.
