So, it's 80*, not a cloud in the sky, vero % humidity....
 

just back from church w/the rest of the day wide open. Hummmhhhhhhh.................., oh yeah, and the boats' full of gas ;)

not for long :boat:

What are you doing posting on the internet? :lolhit:

Jealous as I sit here in the snowy north.

Tell me again WHY I live in MI.

That'll teach me to mouth off.

The highlight of the trip was watching our dog getting used to her new life jacket and me snatching her out of the water w/the boat hook because she wouldn't swim around to the platform :)
Then we got to watch a guy fly around on one of those water jet packs. Very cool.

The lowlight was the port motor not starting after that. Well, it started but didn't want to. Detonated the top off a piston and chunked a rod through the front half! Freagin outboards!
And of course it was #2 the same as it has been on every one I've ever popped! This is top cylinder on port side of motor. They do this because they struggle to fill the water jacket on that side of the block and try to build steam there which builds pressure fighting the water trying to fill it.
On my last hot rod motor I ported the top of that part of the water jacket allowing that steam to escape and cured it. Was on my list to do to these motors and never got to it.
I am also pushing the level of compression acceptable to these motors under this heavy of load on crap gas.
I even had the top carburetors on both motors jetted one step fat to combat this.
Oh well, autopsy is tomorrow.
