[QUOTE="red91sit, post: 469435, member: 25153"] Hooked up a car battery to it tonight, power trim works, forget how aggressively quick it moves. Leaks a bit, but didn't see any transom flexing. I was up in the Wisconsin/Minnesota/Iowa corner, but now I'm down in central Florida. That Ol Man river is a force for sure, submerged trees, wing dams, and giant barges taking up the whole channel while throwing a massive prop wash all the way to the shore. [b]Progress update[/b] Rear floor panels are all spar vanished up, some how, I put more $ of varnish on these, than the plywood originally cost. Weather radio works, I picked up a broadcast from the coast guard, they found an un-manned vessel near the space coast (Raytheon unit with a big antennae). Most leftover floor screws removed or ground level. [/QUOTE]
