I think that has happened to 100% of us...I feel your pain

Ahhh the sweet sound of reality... I went to change a bilge pump last year and now have three thousand man hours, $55,000 in parts, and twelve notebooks full of "projects" done.

Go to fix one thing and find three more that need fixin... If it wasn't like that it wouldn't be boating...

There is always something to be fixed on a boat, even new ones, sometimes they have more problems. If you look harfd enough there is alwasy something that is or is going to break and need replacement, it is sad but it is part of boating. Every spring I do a ton or replacing or fixing and think I'm finally ahead of the game, but give it a few weeks and I'm back where I started, with a to do list again.

Seems to be part of the deal, my friend.

Anyone have an acetylene torch I can borrow?
