Half throttle it does 5-6 mph.

But if I give it full throttle, it rapidly accelerates to 9 mph then gets cavitation around the prop because it's not far enough under the surface and I didn't put the cavitation plate on.

Might do 10-12 mph with it on, if it actually works.

I can't help but notice your head has taken on the shape of a gas can...I think you're working on this project too much, see what it's done to you?

Deformed rivet hole in a piece too big to fit into the press.



No problem.

 

[Duck]

Completely unnecessary fender well looking things... Probably there for the sole purpose of putting styrofoam inside for emergency flotation. They're too flimsy to sit on.





WERE too flimsy I mean. Used to be.

I got wood and screwed it 9 times.

Hell naw that's important. It'll get expedited. 42 months TOPS.

We need to start a pool...

Odds on whether it sinks before the pump gets fixed!

No.

With all the styrofoam that goes into this thing? Not likely to sink even if it had a cannonball go through the hull.

It's a damn good idea tho!

 

[Duck]

I wonder how many more years it'll take for the motor bearings to wear out on my redneck attic ventilation system.

 

[Duck]

Not really. I mean, what kind of paint is used on a file cabinet and what kind of toxins is it putting into the food when it burns?

Hopefully it doesn't happen as someone is walking thru that door just below it..

True.. hey there's a thought, invent mesquite flavored paint!
