    Spring has sprung...

    So we went out to Saguaro Lake yesterday... Had family in from WI and the kids wanted to get out on the water pretty bad...

    Was about 80 degrees Air and 63 water temp... No boarding but we did do a little tubing... Water was pretty cold when I got dumped on the tube with no wet suit on... My heart was pounding pretty good when I got out of the water...

    Another pretty cool thing we saw was a bald eagle attack a heron... They were sqwaking at each other and the heron got away but it was pretty neat to see... I'm kind of glad the kids didn't get to see the bird get its kill... I don't know how they would have taken that...

          One more thing... I forgot to take pix of the before but I had the tower uprights re-anodized... These uprights were in bad shape from the old boat (most of you know the story). So I took them to a local metal guy and he cleaned them up for me... I didn't want the powder coated set to get all dinged and chipped up so I swapped them out... I need to take some better pix but they turned out nice... The anodized red isn't perfect but it looks good IMO...

          A couple of things I learned on this trip... The new truck pulls the boat like it's not even there... It's kind of scary how easy it pulls it... Also the Pro 80's are a beautiful compliment to the Pro 60's... I'm glad I added the second pair...

                LBX, how much did that anodizing cost you???? I am having the powder coat taken off the new boat but do like the idea of colored uprights like you do.

                  One more thing... Saw a 'bu pulling a MC... I tried to get a pic but we flew by them pretty fast... They pulled up to me when I was cleaning my boat up on the ramp... They got a rope wrapped around the prop... Did a really nice job on it... I'm sure they had to take the prop off to get it...

                    It was $100 per upright... A little more than I wanted to spend but they had to spend a little time cleaning them up... They were in pretty bad shape to begin with so I didn't mind... They came out perfect... You'd never know that they didn't come from the factory... I probably could have gotten it done cheaper had I shopped around a little...

                              Guys if you want annodizing I can get you annodizing for $45/color, as many parts as you want... just one price. That however does not include prep.... rather it be polishing or sand blasting though.
