I'm not trying to make crap up about why it happened. I was a moron that ran the boat without a warning system and it bit me in the ass... Simple as that.
Formal apology for the personal attack, coke is right it's just not needed.

That being said I am also going to be adding
More warning to the boat just in case, I have fuel pressure buzzers and want to add oil pressure cutoffs, I don't be electric fuel pumps so I plan to add low pressure sender and tie into distributor power so if I lose pressure it will kill engine.

Adding water pressure gauges and fuel pressure at dash also, I have the widebands so I am good there.

Guys I am trying real hard to make a good solid fun boat, this is not easy especially within a certain budget, gotta do best I can because I won't go into debt boating this is all cash from my pocket.

And you sir know how to do a build thread. Loved the pics of checking measurements and so forth, still reading through it.
