Hey guys it's been quite awhile since I've been here. Let's just say life's been happening. Five years before I retired from truck driving I went back to night shift linehaul runs. Trying to make things easier on my back instead of daytime deliveries. I succeeded and on 04/11/2014 I hung it up...

to leave Tinboats after I pick this up. Only bad thing is momma says one of the tinboats has to go. So I think the 14 footer will be for sale sometime soon. Dealer deleted the ad. Will post some pics once I get the boat in 2-3 weeks.

Went fishin with a buddy of mine in his boat the other day and we managed to catch over 30 keeper size bass. LM and Spotted with the 2 biggest being LM. He had one that was close to 4 lbs. and I had one just shy of 3 lbs. Rest of the fish were 1-2 lb. fish. Plus a bunch of small fish as well...

My former boss e-mailed this pic to me from my retirement day.

Forgot to mention on 4/11 day after my official retirement day I went in to my old service center to turn in my uniforms and employee ID/time card. When I got there the guys gave me a rocking chair (one of the oak ones from Cracker Barrel) with a plaque that had my name on it and my years of...

Guys I took this unit off the Bass Tracker project I'm working on. The outboard was blown up and I sold it to someone for parts but he didn't want this trim unit. I cleaned up all the connections, resealed the wiring harness with silicone and installed a new in-line fuse holder on the wire that...

Started burning my vacation 2 weeks ago and haven't been on the site. Went and visited with some people I haven't seen for a while and been sorting out all my fishing tackle. When I sold my Ranger few years back I just emptied everything out of it into the corner of the rec room and it's been...

Finally got all the crap together that the retirement board needed to prove who I am and how old I am so I can retire. Heck you'd think since I've worked there 37 years they might have a **** clue who I was. :lol: :lol: Oh well put everything in the mail tomorrow. Just 10 more days to work and...

For resurrecting old threads which might be of interest to new members like myself. Thanks Captain. :mrgreen: :LOL2: Yeah Jim I know he doesn't need any encouragement. :LOL2: :LOL2:

From our home office to fill out for my retirement. Will be going with the wife Saturday to finish up some things the bank needs to fill out as well and get everything notarized as necessary. Then put that little packet in the post office by Express Mail with delivery confirmation. I only have...

A 550cc snow shovel. :mrgreen:

I was lookin in the Boat House forum and seen the rudder you had made for your Tupperware(plastic :lol: ) boat. How well does it work? Thinkin about havin one made for my 14 foot john when I'm runnin trolling motor only lakes.

Was on craigslist lookin around and seen this. I'm tempted to buy this myself but would then have to sell my projects I've started but not completed. Thought I'd post the link if that's OK. If not moderators please remove but if anyone is interested just go to craigslist West Virginia, select...

I just got started on a Bass Tracker Pro 17 project. I've already stripped the trailer down and sand blasted it now I'm waiting for a place to hot dip galvanize the frame for me. So while I'm waiting for that to be done thought I'd get everything else ready to go back on the trailer in the mean...

New to this site but been around boats for quite awhile. Have owned a few different kinds over the years but have recently bought an old 89 model Bass Tracker Pro 17 that I'm going to completely refurb from the ground up for fishin our restricted hp lakes here in WV and also traded for an old 65...
