Very nice John, that wasn't so hard was it.
That 78 was really nice, and of course the 98 is on of my personal favorites, having owned one. You can post more than 1 pic at a time. We need to know how your posting. Are your pics on photobucket? Or, are you posting from disk or harddrive? BKH |

Once you have loaded them into photobucket, click on the button "edit" above each photo. Then click resize, and choose the size that says website. BKH

Mrs jbear barefootin' on the boom at Norris. Had to throw this one in, always so proud of her. I know this was alot so thanks guys for being patient with me. You all know how computer challenged I am. Brian; Thought you might take pity on me and call on my cell to help. Still need to know how to get them to the right size and how to post multiples. |

I resized to "website" but it looks like it came out to small. Wow was this a chore. Took me all night. I know some of you young guys must be laughin' out loud at the jbear.
Thanks to Randy in Ohio. I would'a never figured this out without your "picture" instructions. was hard enough as it was. Heath; We have a place on Norris at Hickory Star. It is near Maynardville. |

Thanks guys for all the props.
I still have alot of hair but not all the boats. When I hit the rock wall goin' the wrong way at the Bay, it blew a BIG hole in the pa$$enger side and popped off the top on the '81. Worse part of it all was that it was the weekend before mrs jbear graduated from college. She had to cross the stage on 1 crutch due to a very bad cut she recieved when she was almost thrown from the boat. The boat was totaled. Did not sink tho. Made it back to our dock to drop off Patti and then drove the boat to the other side of the Bay to pull her. Very sad day. Norris Lake is a little North of Knoxville. Not much in our area but on the other side of the lake alot of building is going on. Do a search for Norris Shores on Goggle and that should get you some links. Heath, you are in Central Florida aren't ya? Happy New Year to all my C/CfAN buddies. Hope you all have a safe, prosperous, and Blessed 2007! I know I'm gonna have a great year, right Lake! john |

That Barracuda really is a good looking boat Gary. In the first pictures I saw, I thought the deck and motor cover were burgundy, like the hull. Did you refinish yourself? Paint or Gel? BKH

I painted everything above the rub rail with Interlux Perfection, a two part urethane that is made to go on with a roller and brush. It needs some more wet sanding and buffing but looks pretty good for a rookie. The Pics of the boat in my signature are as I bought the boat.
