members aluminum boats!!

Working on rocket launchers but I got a electrical burn from a 12volt battery of all things and working one handed is slowing me down! Be very careful when you grab a wire that is touch the red and black side at the same time 900 amps wow that's hot!! Haha

That right there is the reason I've never worn my wedding ring or a metal watch band in the 30+ years I've been a mechanic. OUCH !!!!

Thanks for the pics Jac of the rod holder. The ones of your hands though, holy crap! Only time I want to see grill marks like that is on a nice steak or fish fillet.

Only other time I saw something like that was at sea on a destroyer and an electrician decided that adjusting an energized 440 panel with a large screwdriver was a good idea. The ship rolled and he crossed a couple of contacts and it threw him about 20' across the machinery control room. The current went up his arm and blew a small chunk out near his elbow. He lived to tell about it but the smell of burning flesh early in the morning ruined breakfast for a few.

Nice boat don't see too many of those around what kind of power does it have, tell me more
thanks,
This one has the old 5.7 Merc V8 drinks a bit but needs the 260HP as this hull is quiet heavy, very well built 3500lbs empty and 80gals tank.
it is Hard to find these boats as they are not made anymore but the great lakes area still has them.
 
bigger boat

This is Big Drag N Fly. Kingfisher 2825 WE. Doesn't have the name on it yet, looking for someone to do custom graphics but haven't gotten around to it yet.

Pictures taken from the Kingfisher website. They took some pics at a Derby last year. That's Morganic in all the pics, and my son Kai in the first.

Single Yamaha 350 with 9.9HT

In Tofino all Summer, then out of Burrard Civic all Sep-June. Say hi if you see me. On 88A in Van, 78 in Tuff. 6 when I head down into the sound.
