Coolness Shop got my Volvo fixed and back to me in a day. Replaced the AC compressor, it had 14 years and 244,000 miles of use, replaced the thermostat, and replaced the coolant temperature sensor. Supposed to be in the mid 80's next week.

Naw, yer just a probie....
baby steps....he hasn't gotten 20 yards away from the dock yet.
I was a good 300 yards the first time.
Floating in the current dies not count
Do they have a sign that tallies the number of days since somebody broke out of there?
Bwahahaha, I can say it all I want, because I have been there, although My boat always went and came back under its own power, and all my cost was want vs any type of need whatsoever.....
HA, part of why I was hired so fast... If you cracked the joke you know the story... I know major details and it just makes me laugh...
I was ambitious the first time, knew better than to leave the "no wake" zone the second time, I am heading up river if she runs so I can float back down if need be today.
If I spend a little time/effort into cleaning it up and I can keep her running, it's totally worth it. If not for the experience, it at least is a starting off point for a good story.
<edit> Even with this fix, its still under $3200 total "invested" so far. $300 on interior, $3k on a full rebuild of the outboard and its a brand new boat for the price of an underpowered used.

The bottom line with such a project is simple, if the cost is worth it to you than your good.
Damnit, I owe you rep sirAnd if it's not, it's twice as good for teh monkey collective.
It's not just the most recent one. A "friend" of mine from high school broke out of there.....twice.
GL JD!!!!
Start my new job in a week & a half. sooooooo stoked.
L will be SF this weekend & I think may get some end of the season skiing in. Just need to figure out where.
Mammoth?
Brian Head?
or my local ski hill?
Will have the dawgs in tow. not sure how it will go over with the PETA types leaving them in my truck, even though they will be perfectly fine.

Ha, but there is a fair difference between breaking out of the old building which really sucked, and walking out the front door in shackles of the brand new crazy secure building...It's not just the most recent one. A "friend" of mine from high school broke out of there.....twice.
