FINALLY! May Boating Pics

[Tuscany]

It’s ugly A7. Bring a jacket.
No joke..

Just got the call! We were going to the lake, but not taking the boat. Wife called (she's already there) and she wants the boat. Heading out in 30 min.
I love that woman!
Pics to follow.

He’s loving his new life jacket.

That's great Bama!

I worked on the boat some this afternoon and evening and relocated the Chartplotter from the left (hanging off the windscreen brace) to the right on a glass mount ram. And I finally tried out my new LED docking lights and adjusted them. Big time shout out to Thunder for turning me on to these!

Can you let us in on the light secret?

[Ytmsn]

Sure! Just axe Thunder!

Nah, seriously he replaced his with LEDs and told me what bulb to buy. I'm pretty sure they will be different from yours because both Thunder and I have the white plastic housing docking lights, which are a tad different from the stainless ones. BB replaced his SS lights with LEDs, so he can tell you what bulb to use. There's a thread here in boat upgrades. Scroll to the bottom and also look at the next page.

On my old boat I had stainless and they were pretty worthless, and on my 262 they weren't any better, so when Thunder figured out what to replace them with and how he told me how to do it.

Awesome yt, glad they are working good! Super bright compared to the old halogens huh? I also love that the voltage gauge doesn't drop significantly anymore when they come on.

2rb...these are the ones that fit in the larger plastic housings like yt and I have. Not sure what you have or if they will fit.

Rough River Lake. West central KY.

Love this place! So many great memories from my childhood there!

[AsLan7]

Those are some great shots 2RB!

Also love the doggie life jacket with the Cobalt logo in the background.

& what an awesome docking light upgrade YT. Those LED's really shine nicely.

I wanted to install our boat buckles on the trailer, but the weather in Erie was, well like Tuscany said, uggggly. 47 and rain. Oh well.
I'll get them installed in a couple of weeks.

[Ytmsn]

That's crazy. 97 here today! I installed my flag and did a couple other minor things, but it'll be Memorial weekend before I get back on the water. Aaaanxious!

That's a wrap on the A28 series....
