Buying a boat does not make you an official boater.
Having your first major repair, does......:rolleyes: :D

Mike, Good to see things are only 3K (silver Lining?)

Look forward to seeing the ride in the water!!!!

Thanks Bill ....We'll get it ....Correcting some things that could cause problems later on ..... Any more thoughts on
The Bunk System ?

Back in the water ....
 

well ....after almost 4 weeks and 7300.00 later ..back in the water ..and all seems ok ...ran about 2 hours yesterday and temps at a constant 160 and oil pressure at 60 lbs ...both motors ..only issue is a bad temp alarm sensor ...Thanks for all the advise and a place to vent ...Mike ...
