We bought a new 2015 13' Whaler for our boat
Wow.... That's real nice! I owned a 13'3" Whaler with 40 hp Johnson... in the mid 1960's to early 70's. What type/hp motor... got any picts???
In addition to.... the antique big-ship light in my thread starting post #1
She runs though boys and girls. She is sweet -- all I ever dreamed of. I am so fortunate and excited for what the new year will bring to me and Seaweed.
Life is good afloat.
I love your antique light. It's beautiful. Very spiffy find and I'd love to see her burning brightly.
As for me? Seaweed RUNS!!! Yep, she does. And she's not real noisy either. With the decks in place conversation can be held without being six inches from one's ear.
Life is truly wonderful. It's what I've wanted for two years now, and this time, well, my dreams have come true. I am blessed. And for those with advice (all considered and mostly taken) the box is gone leaving the pipe as my riser, a new/used heat exchanger from a Kubota generator is installed, a new expansion tank built by my mechanic is on the bulkhead, oil pressure gauge works, temperature gauge works, volts meter works
Tach doesn't. That's okay as once I'm used to her I'll know the RPMs just by the sound. It's not rocket science.
Still to do: plumb the fuel return line into the tank.

Thats the truth! CongratsI agree that DH got the finest gift of any of us. May you enjoy many sunsets aboard The Promise.
I received a swivel chair on wheels for additional seating in the saloon.
