sounds good dave- i'm not in yet. cleaned and painted engine room-dropped in two fresh engines-2 new blowers and got generator running-new batteries are in- finishing touches on sat. will have both engines running and test genny under load. waiting on 2 new props from michigan and my haul date from home is may 24 th. if i have props by then i will be launched from the ramp. if not dry dock till they get here.i stripped and had the radar arch and a bunch of other parts painted so have to reinstall after the haul. also had canvas fixed-extended and new glass put in. lots of work done in a short time but once in the rest will be enjoyable with a frosty or 2. good luck with your launch !!!!!!

hey dave - long time no post - i'm not worried about light pic. but i hope you had success with your express. any progress. i took mine out twice now and both about 20 mile rides. 2 for 2 on leaving dock and squeezing her back in on 1 try - not bad for first time driving a boat lol. 2 dock buddies had me pull out of hampton river and brought me straight to the mouth of the mighty merrimac river- a good first lesson- boat handles like a dream and spins on a dime so far. plenty left to learn but i ll be heading out solo soon.
