    California Delta....for now
    I haven't posted in a while as we have been getting our '84 Kha Shing in the shape we want it. Again, thanks to all that have offered advice and comments.

    A week after we brought the boat to our home marina it was moved to the Port of Stockton to have the engine work done. J&H Marine took a bit longer that promised (there's a surprise) but when I picked the boat up the salon and engine room were cleaner than when they took it. My 3208's have new/rebuilt cooling systems from the circ pumps all the way back to the trans coolers and the top of the port engine was rebuilt. It runs great and I could not be happier.

    We have been getting her cleaned and looking the way we want it. Below are a few recent pics I thought I'd share.

    (Mod note; All hotlinked pictures deleted, reduced in size and reposted below.)

    As you all know this is a work in progress. This week I am getting an estimate to add AC/Heat. The boat was originally a SoCal boat and then an SF Bay boat. No AC really needed but we are already having 90 degree days here in the Delta and fans aren't going to cut it. I know this is going to be a big hit but it will be worth it.

    Really nice looking boat. You should have a blast exploring the Delta since it has a couple thousand or so miles of shoreline. Your boat seems to be the right size for that kind of cruising. Have fun!
