Rebuilding a "Tired" Diaphragm Boat Pump

Boat Project!!
 
OK, this is a "real" boat project. People always ask what do we do all day?
 
The shower pump quit working. It started to fail about 2 months ago. I took the pump apart and cleaned it and examined the pump. It appeared, overall, in good shape. The two valves were shot and the other rubber parts where worn out. I got a rebuild kit and put it to the side. 


The pump limped along until Saturday. So I pulled it out and tore it apart and rebuilt it with "some" of the new parts.

I hope you enjoyed this video or a real boat project.

TGIF Party!!

Ahoy my friends. It is Friday again. How is the weather where you are?

Is it raining? Is there any chance of rain? I hope not...Because.

Have a great Friday.

Steve Jobs and his Vision

I was outside and the sky turned a beautiful fire red as the sun was setting...I didn't happen to have a camera, of course, but I did have my iPhone in my pocket.

So I took this gorgeous photo with my iPhone.

Thank you Steve.

This is just one little thing most of us take for granted today.


Steve Jobs is just a year and a half or so older than I am. I will be 54 at the end of next week and Steve is 56. I remember following Steve's progress and success (and failures) throughout our lives. I vividly remember the 1984 Superbowl Commercial for the Macintosh Computer. 


What a wonderful piece of ART.


So Steve, I will truly miss your passion, persistence, and your vision.....

Brain Washing

Are you gettin' brainwashed by anything?

BrainWashing: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. 

Maybe the media? Like TV?

Think about it...Hour after hour of garbage content. Nothing of real value.

What do you think?

Butterflies

A Feathered Friend Visits

Ahoy matey.

Yesterday, me Admiral noticed a feathered friend sittin' on the top of a mast. The sailboat was just 3 or 4 slips down from us.

Do you know what kind of bird this is?

There are many in this area. It was fun to watch, such big eyes. Wow.
