Ive had my fair share of mishaps with these boats. We overheated the engines a while back sucking up a bunch of seaweed. My warning system was not working at the time. However Glass Dave is rewiring the entire boat and the engines are already rebuilt. Nothing was wrong with them we refrshed them just to make sure nothing was hurt.
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.

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.
