ROAD TRIP.........

Well-known member
i am all messed up on coka cola and energy drinks, but i got my pulsare today. 21 hours and 1150 miles later and a 2004 2100 long deck sits in the garage. i will get a picture up after some sleep..........i am glad the searching is over!
 
Congrads I knew you would find what u truely wanted. Hope catchup with u one day this summer. merc 245
 
Glad to hear you made it there and back OK! My trip starts in about 2 hours, and is only 3+ hours round trip this time. IF I bring mine home this afternoon, we'll both be done looking for a while! I'll finally have a Checkmate again. Been without since September of '03! After trying a couple of 'generic' family boats, it'll be great to be driving a 'Mate again.

Let the modding begin!!
 
good luck, and bring her home! i can't believe i am up right now........i couldn't sleep a wink and i am dead tired.
 
Hey Dude, How was the trip home? Did you get lost anymore. Am I on your s41t list for those directions? boatman
 
By the way, I hope you have as much fun with that Pulsare as I did, but without all the BS! If you need anything, just let me know. boatman
 
hey gary, the directions were fine. i don't know how you guys live in that area, there is no "direct" route from point a to point b. LOL i have to say though, the area is beautiful! the scenery made the trip a lot better. you need to post a picture of (its current state)the lake you boat in, like a before and after.....it is hard to believe they can drain it down so far and then fill it up to the level it is in the summer. how long dose that take?
 




the pictures do it no justice. i had a lot of pictures to go from, and it turned out way sexier in person. i was quite happy.

the yellow is vinal tape that is over the original black gell. i am debating removing it, but first i will take a section and cover the yellow with electrical tape to try to get an idea first.

thanks for the kind words every one!
 
One more boat for me to drool over this summer on the river. New boat looks great.

thanks. no worries, the drool wipes right off, i had to wipe it down a few times today......i had to catch it before it froze, but it came right off! l:rof:
 
very nice i likey the yella ! i get the lake drain bit when i lived in co. they did that would use snow melt runoff to refill em makes for cold water on a small azz lake ! down side is 2 years the snow pack was low lake is half the size !
 
the promax will not really be modded out, i might shave the heads a bit. it is totaly apart right now to be freshend up. i am taking care of the so called promax gremlins...... top pinning the pistons, replace the rod brgs. with metal caged ones, and removing the oil injection. i am also going to replace the reeds, and send the injectors out for cleaning and flow testing.
 
Curt,

GREAT looking boat, congrats. Looks like you found what you were after! I'm still looking at a couple of starliners. Just debating what/which/if...
