I’d recommend the Fleece Coolant Bypass Kit to help cool the rear cylinders. Has its own 180* thermostat and I’ve installed a 180* main and it holds a steady 180‘s temp now. Remove the rear freeze plug (above the trans), replaces it with a billet aluminum thermostat housing. its a nice kit and...
Parbuckling is a process where using forward motion of a tow boat you roll the boat over. It requires a couple of lines on the capsized boat (one on the stern cleat, one on the bow). Stern line goes under the boat and over the hull which will start the rolling process. Timing on the pulling of...

We’ve got State Farm for the trucks and cars and a freaking umbrella over it all, Foremost for the house and 5th wheel and the bastards will not cover the boat...

We had Smooth As Glass in Riverbank repair and re gelcoat the cap on our new at the time 5th wheel, a few years back. Damaged from the manufacturer or dealer, Smooth as Glass did an awesome job rebuilding and recoating most of the caps lower center section. Still looks great! I’m hoping to take...
Or, how’s about we discuss all the vineyards that have popped up. In the Central Valley it’s all about clearing out previous growth and planting grape trees. Punching new wells, pulling the water table down so locals are having to re-drill to lower their depth. Yeah we have water now but…
