I know we post soooo much about casinos here of course , but I am so proud of this. I bought a 1971 Hydrasports with a 150 hp racing Mercury otherwise known as 'The tower of power'. Dad and I worked hard all winter and had a blast. She rode so well this Summer!!! See what a little love and elbow grease can do? Hope you enjoy the before and after pics, friends!

Thanks Cranders! Dad won't be around forever so this project meant so much to me when he said he would help with it. Bonus is that now I'm older and I actually want to listen to him! Kept me off the laptop too which is always a good thing. . Every daughter should be as lucky as I am to have such an awesome knowledgeable dad.

Thanks Rena. I have learned so much about boating from him since I was born lol. Boaters license at 13, boaters safety courses at 10, waterskiing, tubing, fixing the engine, properly mixing the gas, parking in the water as well as driving a trailer to launch if I need to. Glad I can pass these things on to my daughter, we have started already.

Thank you Blue and Nirvana. It's so good to know that no matter what happens we built this incredibly awesome toy and spent such good quality time together at a period in our lives that was enjoyable for both of us. This will be passed on down through the generations I'm sure.
Now next time anyone is in Missouri give me a holler and I'll take ya out and show ya what this baby can do! Tops out at about 75 MPH!!! -

It made me quite sad reading this post, as my dad was forever pestering me to do a similar project with him for a long time before he passed away - he was a mechanic his whole life and I guess desperately wanted to spend more time with me whilst he had it left. Make the most of the time you have with your parents, thats all I really wanted to say.

You are so right about making the most of our time with them. I make it a point to call them both at least once every couple of days. I'm so sorry it made you sad, but think about all of the great accomplishments that your father has watched you make from up above. He's still with you. Head up.

Don't be concerned, your tale may have pulled on my heart strings but also gave me a real pause for thought. I'm confident in hindsight that my dad understood my reasons for not taking up his project at the time and he left me no doubt he was proud of me for what I had achieved in my life. When he was stolen away so suddenly and unexpectedly, it broke my heart, but I take comfort in the fact he left this world proud, and hopefully one day I will complete his ideas myself in his name. Infact that is a promise I have made to myself as a result of your post -

Wscalley - I was just about to reply to your first post on page one before even looking at page 2 of this thread. What you said here is exactly what i was going to say you. Having lost both my parents i can truly understand and isn't amazing how we manage to find the place in our hearts where we quit blaming ourselves and quit feeling we shoulda done this, shoulda done that. Where does that strength and new rejuvenated insight come from........a little nudge here and there from our loved ones departed i'd like to think!
Jodi - the boat is fabulous and so glad you shared this with us because it goes to show we ARE more than gamblings! And your post not only inspired other members but me too! Can't think of better way to have fun then being on a boat. A friend of mine got his boat fixed this summer and we were all gonna go out on it when it broke down again the second it hit the water.........sigh.

Thanks Lips! I plan on keeping you all updated through the winter.
Now to explain the name- El Diamanté Con Monograma. That means 'The Monogrammed Diamond'. My grandmother on my dad's side was my best friend. We lost her at 94 about 4 years ago. She used to tell us 'You better be good or you won't get the monogrammed diamonds!' (Meaning we would be disinherited). Of course there is no such thing as a monogrammed diamond, but to this day my family members say the same thing to all the little ones.
So I had to honor her in some way. Here's my 'Monogrammed Diamond'. -

Lips don't worry I haven't whacked any monsters yet. But it is interesting to me because I am a vegetarian and have been for years. People are so against hunting but will eat meat from Walmart or wherever but what I am doing is simply affording my family a sustainable lifestyle with meat that is antibiotic and hormone free. So much healthier than buying from a store.
Thanks kindofrelease! Love this boat and have had a blast updating my LCB family and working on it with dad. -
