I think with 30's, you'll be tickling 80 :cool:

We kept it smooth. It looks completely stock except for being completey straight.

I thought about sanding it, but for the little gain you would actually see it was not worth it in my opinion as for resale. Would probably raise too many negative questions.

It would have, if I had not taken in it in for a tune up. It ended up needing more than just a tune up.

After seeing all the parts that were in the engine no wonder James had trouble blowing engines. The internal parts were not much to be desired.

Was it rebuilt with cheap parts. Is Derybery going to warranty it? HaHa!! Good Luck! Man that totally sucks! At least you caught it before it blew.

Yeah right, like he warranted my friend Cullin's engines in Jacksonville, or Jim Tyson's engines in Jackson, or the guy on here a few months ago in Virginia.

I would not let him touch my engines with a 10 foot pole.

From what I have seen and heard first hand he builds "JUNK" and rips people off.

Did your boat originally come with "Blue motors" ?

The reason I ask is that I've never seen one ( w/HP's)
without offshore motor mounts.....wondering if it was
an option.
