So today is the day!
How's the suspense going...?  |
|
|
- Gun control means: using BOTH hands!
- Money doesn't make one happy, but when it rains cats and dogs, it's still better to cry in a Porsche than on a bicycle... |

Suspense level is high. Daughters are drag racing this weekend, so we wouldn't have been able to get to it anyway. Gotta check out the tint shop, and get an estimate for a tad bit of gel work. I could do both, and it would look good, but I have an old friend who is far better than me. Been working on High end boats gel repair for almost 20 years. New lift is in the water and ready though. |

Somehow a new boat arriving beats a new car arriving by a long shot. When my boat rolled into the place that I work I pretty much said goodbye to everyone, hitched on to it, and went to the lake. Yes it needed work, but I just wanted to get a ride in it ASAP.
Have fun! |

ETA is tomorrow morning. The suspense is killing me. Going to give her a quick oil change, head to the vinyl guy to measure for registration stickers, and a couple personal touches. Then we're hitting the water!
Currently debating between Rotella Tripple Protection15w40 and VR1 20w50 Also Shell 30w non-detergent for the V drive, or Rotella T1 30w HD. Thoughts? |

Either oil is supposed to be good. I run 10-40, so I have been using bradd penn. Also has the needed zinc. The others don't come in a 10-40 formulation from what I understand. Maybe some more research later on down the road, but the bradd penn it was available when I needed it, so that's what I currently am running.

I did have a thread years ago. I'll try to pull it back up and add to it. |

Very nice! I'll have to look in the brochures for the specs on an '01 Hawktique!

Is that thing on Lake Delhi? I saw the old 90 Hawktique rolling around somewhere in the last year or two but I forget where.
That's a beautiful SAN! |

It is at our place on Lake Delhi. The old one ended up in Oconomowoc, WI.
