Bringing Her Home

So after paying for a marine survey on "Pintail" the Luders 21 and coordinating with a friend I flew up to Ohio to get the boat.  Using a buddies truck we hauled her back to Oklahoma in two days from Huron, Ohio.  We Needed to add lights to the trailer and grease to the bearings which took several hours because the trailer was homebuilt.  It is a very sturdy trailer but the axle and wheels could use some work.  That will be a project once the boat is in the water or on blocks.  Without incident we made the trip, no flats or breaks!

Snow Day in OK!


Just as soon as we got back "Pintail" was covered in snow.  I quickly rushed to get a tarp and cover her exposed cabin.  Something I did not do for the trip out here.  As best I can tell the water damage was so extensive it wasn't work ruining a tarp on the trip out here to try to keep a little water out. Snow stacking up is a different story however.  So, starting to treat her right and care for her.
