Back in the Molokai days:  Deep fry manini with the boys.

Good morning 4:10am.
Ala Moana knee high and clean.
Diamond Head waist high and bumpy.
Trade winds at 20mph.
Sunny and warm.
Going to the sea.
Have a wonderful day!

Had a great time in Bali hanging out with Mike.  We did the craziest things when we were kids growing up in Hawaii.  Too crazy to mention.  45 years later, we still do crazy things.  Needed cold a Bintang beer so we jumped on the bike and weaved through the crazy roads in Bali.  

I scold my students when they take off and do this.  This was recently.  Do you know who it is?  I know he knows who this is.

I went for a blood test this morning.  I always get nervous when I see blood.  I felt sick after.

This is the next project.  This motor was broken and nobody could fix it.  It’s been sitting in the dirt for years so I brought it home to challenge myself.  

I just changed all the oils, replaced the broken parts, and did full maintenance on it.

This is the old impeller and water pump, which really needed to be addressed.  

After just doing my 2 Yamaha F115 motors, this little F15 was so easy.  Building muscle memory.

Everything is going back perfectly.  I’m just hoping it’s going to start up.

Tomorrow I’m going to rebuild the carburetor.  

I just buffed out the oxidized paint and it’s looking good again.  If I can get this motor running properly, I’ll be seeing you on the sandbars on the East side!

Yesterday once more:  Oshima-san’s 7 year comeback.

Good morning 4:50am.
Ala Moana knee high and clean.
Diamond Head waist high and bumpy.
Trade winds at 15mph.
Sun, clouds, and warm.
Going to the sea.
Have a wonderful day!
