EK Ballast Install

[eks]

Here is a picture of the thickness of the bottom of the boat.

I can't believe they are offering a life time warranty with this kind of cheap fiberglass work.

The boat is all clean and waiting for the final fittings.

Pump on the port side. I wanted to install it on the other side of the wall, but there was no space.

I'm ready the only problem is I am in Moab right now waiting for everyone to get up so we can go climb some more rocks. I would love to come see the ballast install in action.

Also from above comment of going with new dealer here (Wasatch Marine) I had them do a couple things for me last fall and they worked out great. I will go back in the future. Jason (I think that's his name) owner is great and wants to win us all over to his store.

Hopefully the wind is not screaming up there like it is today in Moab. I am now headed out for some fun. Have a great day and I'll check in later.

Here is a pic from yesterday.

Well, Moab is the second best thing after boating!!

I just finished but I don't have all the fillings yet. I though it was coming today but it did not arrived.

I'll post the finish pictures in a few minutes

Original Wing Nut
What is that thing you are standing next to??? That thing would be great to tow the boat to the marina. Since I only live a mile away not far to travel....
That thing rocks. I like how you can see couple wheels off the ground.

Perhaps "Original Wing Nut" and "Moki" could join us. Are there any other Utah guys by us?

I am not sure I am ready to get in the water yet.

JetBlue is great, but limited destinations from Charlotte. Just about everywhere we go, we have to go through Atlanta..........which is by far the worst airport to fly through

It is also one of the worst to try and walk out of.

There is your ride to Sacramento. JetBlue to Washington DC and then to Sacramento. They have a direct flight from DC to Sac...

If we go to Chicago, we try to fly into Midway.

Well, O'Hare and DFW are pretty bad too.

Man, those are to of the worst. We're lucky here, because of the Wright amendment, Southwest uses Austin as a major hub for their long haul routes. I can usually get direct flights to most parts of the country. JetBlue is great if I need to go to Boston or NYC.

They do charge extra for an exit row. I used to be platinum on American. Then they started nickle and diming me to death and their customer service went to hell. Now I only fly Continental, Southwest and JetBlue.

Not surprised. We have a slim choice here, either US Air or Delta for 90% of our flights.

[dogbert]

At least they dont charge you extra for an isle or window seat like Useless (US) Air

Yeah, you never get off the ground because they are still checking the wire wrap spacing on the looms.
Got to be frustrating for those pilots.
