Meridian 341 Pre-Start Checklist

1st thing I would do was sit down on the bow light up a cigar and just enjoy the rocking of the boat. Congratulations!

Smart man. Double hose clamps everywhere you can get them on. Very simple and cheap. But can save your ass out on the water. I think I've watched almost all your videos. Glad your boat had minimal damage in Ian despite being grounded. We've boated a lot of the canals around Cape Coral on vacation and it's just surreal seeing all the damage right where we've boated. Your ICW vids are done very well. All your vids are actually. We've been researching the Great Loop trip and your model boat along with a few others in the 35 to 45 ft range. Nice YT channel, nice educational vids with great DIY info that will save others a lot of money too. Like repairing the Cool fuel pumps/filters. Learned a lot on that video. Fuel pressure testing and diagnosis. It's killing me trying to place who your voice sounds like. Howard Stern or someone on a talk or radio show. I'm guessing you hear that a lot and maybe can help me place it. No biggie if not. At any rate. Thank you for the well done and informative channel. I subscribed awhile ago but wanted to take a minute to say thanks. Lifetime boater here but I learn a lot from your channel. Well done.

Thank you for following along. Glad your enjoying the vids. I’ve heard I sound like Ray Romano on the vids. Lol

It must be a satisfying feeling with the boat in the water and summer just around the corner

[@AdventuresofHappyOurs]

It is nice. Wish we had nicer weather though! Florida is 2 years away for us.

@@AdventuresofHappyOurs I'm heading down to Florida next week for a little rest and relaxation. It's still been to cold here in NC to get our kayaks out on the water.

Weather has been crazy up by me. We had sleet last Saturday and rain just about every day. Where is spring!?!

First thing i always do after verifying oil pressure is run back and check the exhaust for water flow. After that i do exactly as you do and do a bilge investigation. The Meridian 341 is an awesome boat, love them.

Wow cap. Your big boat really takes time to get it up and running there is a lot to remember wen getting the boat back on the water, but now you are ready for the summer cap.👍👍😉👨‍✈️

[@AdventuresofHappyOurs]

Labor of love as I'm sure you know!

[@OutOnTheReef]

@@AdventuresofHappyOurs yes we spend more time in our boats then we take our wives out to eat but don't let them know that 😁👍

Nice, very clean boat. I sea trialed my new boat (2004 Sea Ray Sundancer 360) up on lake champlain on the 3rd, can't wait to get here back home to Long Island.
