Howdy fellow adventurers, I'm feeling blessed lately. A couple episodes back in this build series, you'll see that we picked up a pontoon boat in Kentucky (Winter 2020) for a decent price, to harvest a 2007 Honda 50 HP 4-stroke for the Beagle barge. What I didn't mention was, when I bought it...I backed the pontoon into the water and tried it out (after paying for it of course!) and it was having some issues. The water pump was shot, and one of the cylinders wasn't firing. I was hoping it was just a carb issue (most likely) I took a compression reading after getting home, and all the cylinders were more/less equal (a good sign) so I replaced the impeller and hoped for the best. Then the snows hit... As you see in this video, it was (probably) a carb issue (common on outboards that sit for a while) and she came back to life. She still isn't running "perfect" but running pretty darn good...and that's good enough for me. Usually internal combustion engines run better as they get used as intended--often and consistently. Well...this outboard is going to get a lot of use between Superiorland and Florida this fall and winter.

Howdy! Fellow adventurers. In this episode, Wavey and I finally reach Mobile Bay. The Tombigbee waterway is a long and wild part of the Great Loop...I hope we show you a little of its essence.

We did what we always do, stretch our legs, look around, take pictures and video of interesting stuff. 20 minutes later, we called the number on the door to buy some gas. This is when (don't know his name, don't care) comes barreling down the hill on his side-by-side "Quit fiddle-fucking around and get your gas!" (his words) still not completely repelled from the place, I asked, "How much is it a gallon?" His reply, "I don't know!" then proceeded up the hill. This is more/less where the video starts. I've been told that Bobby's daughter inherited the place, and they really don't want to run it anymore. His crap insta-attitude was probably from watching Wavey and I on cameras while he had Duck Dynasty reruns to watch. The days of Bobby's Fish Camp as a must stop for loopers I'm sorry to say are over. You've been warned. https://youtu.be/pH6G6Ch2EY0?si=TVdrGpWFLQEofSCT Want to connect? bnetz95959@yahoo.com Back-up channel for supplemental videos https://youtu.be/9w886CuIVrc?si=YvaiSe7el27eViqV Smaller channel shout-out of the week https://youtu.be/iMSsg8wwJa8?si=eh1UdLT4jPo_ZEO2 ICECO Coolers 12% discount code WAVEY at checkout https://icecofreezer.com/ Northwoods fabrication tiny woodstove.
