Kind of, they are a single speed but can run full time spinning clockwise and full time spinning counter clockwise. They have a valve that I can adjust the pressure on that will let the clutches get close enough together to drag the oil from the next one but not actually touch and it will be like a low gear. Sometimes they call it a trolling gear.
U-joint I think its a 1550

And for the most important part of the build...... Chocolate chip Cookies..... lots of cookies.... If you ever make it to grand rapids find Monica's gourmet cookies. They are the best chocolate chip cookies. Taste like chocolate chip cookie dough before you cook it. With out having to go to Michigan to get the cookies I may not have been up there as much to work on the boat.

Yes, we have tried to standardize most of the stuff. Oversizing hoses and bolts on some stuff to try to make more things the same size. I did not have a hex head plug that size but we will have a crescent wrench so that would be easier. Thanks, now you made me drive to lowes.

Fuel tank vents. They are both on the up side when its tilted. I put them as high on the boat as I could get so they are in the side of the windshield receiver instead of the side of boat. The Fuel tanks go up almost to the bottom of the deck so the vent had to be higher.

WinCo's cookies are slightly undercooked. Yum!
When Safeway's aren't overcooked I like the Chocolate Chunk and Sugar w/M&M's
Costco's have gone downhill but still great to have after pizza while shopping.
Grandma's are a good go to but they've been getting smaller and smaller. I called the comment line and told them to make them big again and just charge more. I want a real cookie!
ha ha
This build is awesome. So much better than waiting to hear that TRL505 and Keegan got married and Young hooked up with TRL505's daughter.
