The new dive boat is finished and the maiden voyage…

Filed under: Boat Building,Constance,Florida,Photography,landscape — Capn Scott @ 9:00 am

To start with, I finally had to move from the marina again…  Another incident, but the final one…  A friend came to my aid and I stayed behind his home on the river for a few weeks to finish up the boat.

He has an amazing view…

Just finishing up…

Starting to look like a real dive boat.

I moved the boat down to a place with dry storage and set it there for long term storage.  After driving the boat for 7 hours, when I get back, I will rebuild the motor and pump up the horsepower from 160 hp to 225 hp.  I think it needs it to achieve better speed.  I also need to replace the propeller…

Now, I’m off to Philadelphia, where I will be eating macaroni and cheese and writing code till the late hours of the morning.  I need to finish up the online booking software.  I also need to write a couple of other programs, so that I have a second income source and don’t have to depend entirely upon the dive boat.  That way, I can use the dive boat for myself and get some underwater photos and video.
