The night before my big adventure to SGI to camp and fish (and freeze) I was putting the finishing touches on my boat and getting everything put together. I havent run the boat in a while since i have been at school so i fire her up just to make sure it goes... i push up the choke lever to give it some juice and SNAP. The metal lever breaks off in my hand right at the base. needless to say there were a few choice words and i cant find the lever since i launched it into the woods in the backyard. Ill be waiting at the gate at Mr. Bellamy's shop in the morning. Lets hope this is an easy fix and i can still go fishing sometime soon....
On a positive note... When i was home for thanksgiving pops and i took the boat up to Bellamys to get a console built so i can stand and drive. Well when i pulled in my driveway last night my headlights were shining on not only a new console but a poling platform. I had no clue he was doing this for me and I could not have been happier. Happy Graduation and Merry Christmas to me! Now if i can only get the darn thing to the water!!!!
