What Work did you do on your Mastercraft Today?

[PhotoInc]

I put gas in my 87 Prostar today and skied all morning then came home, tied it up at the dock, and put the cover on it, then walked in my home office and went to work. Since solving my engine and distributor problems, she has been getting used like she should be.....rode hard and put up wet!!

Installed 2 JL Audio Speakers on the tower, and hooked up a 6 channel JL audio amp. Sound is incredible!

Had a new bimini top put on. Looked at it on the trailer and said to my self "Why am I going to work"?

[Wake2wake]

oil change and pulled the old decals off the side, hoping to buff the entire hull tomorrow, and have it waxed and I will replace the decals with something in the off season.

Check the red statements out.

TMCNo1 - I took apart the distributor. The weights moved ok by hand or with a screwdriver. One of the springs was rusted, but it still pulled the weights into the inner-most position, while allowing it to go out to the outer most position. The other spring looked ok. I lubricated the weights and springs - this seemed to make the movement smoother. However, it doesn't seem like this is the problem since the weights moved ok before I did anything, but won't really know until I get it back onto the water.

In the Do It Yourself Electronic Ignition thread (http://www.tmcowners.com/teamtalk/showthread.php?t=3533), post 37, somebody mentions lubricating the breaker plate. What is this and does it apply to the non-EI distributor? I put some oil on the packing material/wick, but can't figure out what is being lubricated. The plate that I am aware of it screwed down, so doesn't seem to be able to rotate on the distributor shaft.

Any other ideas on what I should be checking?

Again, I really appreciate the help.

Replaced the broken front cooler cushion strap with a piece of webbing. Now, just have to get through a few items at work today and should be on the water by 2P (99 degrees and no wind -which is rare in the windsurfing capitol of the world).

1. Installed tower, but took it back off because I didn't like the way it looked.
2. Waxed cylinders so pistons will move more freely.
3. Applied fresh coat of paint to starter housing.
4. Removed seat skins and replaced foam padding with thinner, sturdier foam to prevent seam cracking.
5. Coated my boat buddy with strawberry-flavored tingling sensation body lotion.

What about that filth muck on your windshields?

Last night: Wednesday: I pulled one of my spark plugs so I can go buy a new set, pulled the tube off the front of the trailer from drying, and hung up my vintage MC ProStar 205 sales poster in my new garage.

2 1/2 years ago I replaced the rear seal in my transmission. I thought it was pretty lofty since all of my phone quotes were $1000+.

SHE LOVED IT...................ya!

Looked out my bedroom window to make sure it was still in the lift.

I like your idea of boat ownership

[SKIBUMM]

I think it's safe to say we are all a little touched when it comes to our boats.. I think most Malibu owers are the same. It's got to be a pride in ownership, and that we plopped a few bills down and want that investment to last. What I don't get are the "other" boats that are out there. They seems to be a lower percentage of poeple who give a S%^& about their boats, as I see many boats, only a couple years old, pretty thrashed out on the lake

I must be the odd one then because I have a 93 centurion Falcon XP that looks like it just rolled off the showtoom floor. Everything is still all original. I take that back I just replaced the blower tubing. And thanks to TMCno1 my deck looks better than it has in years. In my neck of the woods I am somewhat amazed at how most people take care of thier boats.

Do you guys ever read the instructions to some of those Hull cleaning products that help with mineral deposits and growth?

Well ... just got back from Norris and I use some of that stuff on Sunday to clean up a few spots on my black stripe.

As some of my skin peels from my fingers as I type this, then I realize why they encourage you to wear rubber gloves when applying it.

RTFM ..... to stay on topic ...... cleaned out the boat from my Norris, TN trip. She is ready to ski this Saturday. Fresh wax ... and peeling skin. Ahhh.

[Double D]

Went to the store and bought new spark plugs, and picked up 4 new trailer marker lights.
Was supposed to be on the lake tonight!!

You know, women pay good money for that stuff... Facial peel...lol
