Lee Yeaton has returned from vacation and has kindly posted 2 pictures of my
boats at his website of::

http://thebayguide.com/rec.boats/ (Thank you Lee)

BTW: Lee's other site is http://thebayguide.com/

You previously stated an interest in posting some pics of your boats on the
site. Now may be the time if you still plan to do so. I would like to see
a picture of that Contender of yours. ;-)

I'm redoing my website and will post them there as a background - a
picture of the "fleet" if you will including the new boat - twin Volvo
diesels to boot!!!

I'm saving the surprise.

Another week. :)




Twin Volvo diesels? I've got twin Volvo diesels. Did Mrs.E. sell you my
boat??????????

Nope. That is the boat we sold a couple of years ago as noted just
above the picture.

A 32' Express...

And that's all I'm gonna say for now.

Other than to say that owning inboard diesels goes against every
single fiber of my inner need-for-speed core.

It's being delivered Friday.




Ok. We'll wait for the boat details, but .... what engines?
I ask because the general boating community always says about Volvo diesels,
"ya can't get parts ... yada... yada... yada...

I've never had any problems getting regular maintenance parts for mine,
including the standard "spare parts" inventory of filters, belts, etc. If
and when they should ever need more serious maintenance, the marina where I
have the boat has certified Volvo diesel mechanics.

Bottom line is, I think you are really going to like them. Mine are TAMP
63P (370hp version) and have been absolutely trouble-free, quiet and clean
burning as compared to some of the other diesels. They are also very fuel
efficient engines.

Congrats in advance and welcome to the world of "real" boat engines! :-)

(no flames, please --- gassers are fine for some applications)

32 foot express with twin diesels.............Luhr's or Carolina
Classic?

Congratulations on the new boat Tom. I hope the weather and launch are
both flawless. ;-)
