July 31, 2008 the African Queen is back out on the waters . . but not for long. Grandpa Cal had one questions "Why?" The trip began with a little MORE engine repair. Soon the engine was purring like a kitten and Grandpa was roaring like a lion. It may have something to do with being in the middle of the Snake River and the nocking of the engine. Within seconds Ron is saying we can make it to our fishing hole; however, the wiser of the two boys, Richard, chose to head back to the docks. Within seconds the African Queen engine said it's last goodbyes. Luckily the backup electric motor brought the crew safely back to ground. Round 1 . . the adventures continues in the morning stay tuned . . more to come.
