Re: Sintes 21 Rebuild
Oh, no doubt it is going to float, it is going to float!! It's is always very exciting to hear/see a boat launch after following what and how things were done to it. We are all there with you feeling the build up of splash day and expecting great results. As a beginner I get excited as a build/repair gets closer to the water.

Five bucks it floats. 
Another ten it will not go faster than 25mph.

Re: Sintes 21 Rebuild
Well we will hope it floats 
Pretty sure AA and CapeMan will not be very pleased with me if they get dunked in a glacier fed lake 
I would take those bets Tom but I do not want to bet against myself on the first part. And the second part I need to ask if you understand it will have 200hp on the transom
Heavy as a pig or not if it will not do over 40 I am going to be really disappointed

I’ll be heading your way in 59 hours and 27 minutes.
I’m not counting though...Can’t wait to see the Sintes, I bet she will do 40 or we will have to just say she did and take their money.
Looking great, see you soon!

Re: Sintes 21 Rebuild
Got bad news for you AA Been dang hot around here the past few days, it hit mid 70's today. Good news is it supposed to cool down a little in the next few days. Drop me a line when you get to Primrose and settled in.
On the boat front I got a few more items knocked out today. With a little luck either tomorrow or Sunday afternoon I will be able to put a little fuel in her and see if it will make smoke

Just to level set the expectations...
Smoke from internal combustion or smoke from you intentionally setting fire to the hull to cover evidence?
Just making sure we know what smoke to look for.

Re: Sintes 21 Rebuild
Well if you asked me today it would be from soaking it in gas
Thought I was going to light her up but if it could be a pain it was today. Oh well some days you win and some not so much. Still hoping to have it up and running sometime tomorrow. As SWMBO would say "we will see"
Liudmila and I are about ready to make a little road trip and gather us up some Cracker types
