Sorry but I like that better. Don’t tell your wife though!!!! I don’t need her to hate me if we ever meet. :LOL:

This one will be for sale upon completion. She wanted to see symmetry for once. I have to build one for her sisters wedding gift, and I told her that she has to pick the pattern out. Me, I personaly prefer the oddball random patterns.

Needed a second dose clear the metal flake sucking up like crazy. Did a good 3 k wet sand. Polish. Now some wax. Can’t wait to see it in the sun. Not bad for 45 yrs. all original. Can’t wait for the new seats so we can run it. Hopefully a week out.

flew back to Vegas from SFO this afternoon. SFO was the typical 55 degrees and foggy. Taking off you can see the Sutro Tower coming out of the fog. Then coming into Vegas there We’re a few things that peaked my interest. Anyone know what they are?

Top end rebuilt.

New front sprocket on.

Front forks and rear shock - Rebuilt, and added bleeders.

Everything good and cleaned up.

Fire it up tomorrow.

Get to our destination on Thursday and have new rear sprocket and drive chains. New tires, but no idea when his new wheels will ship yet. Set the rear sag and go.

Guessing that was Two Harbors you departed from in background?
We trained to the west of it.
Did our annual deep dive certs and did a cavern entry/exist
We don’t anchor, drop offs, pick ups to practice quick exits/ boardings

was like a confinement test as entrancewas 3 ft. Deep with waves punching us into rocks.
Was waiting fir an eel to bite me as we had no choice but to drag over the rocks there, lol
Caught a lot of air yesterday in this little guy:
7 Cops, 400 gallons of fuel and dive gear made this thing launch in 5’ swells

Not really sure at this point. We are going on to the water in the AM with Shevin. Aldo got a delivery at the house on Saturday and a few things that can be put off until next week. LOL. Not sure about what we are going to do on the 4th. How about you guys?
