Im certain for us on that day we made the right choice. Oh well. Still had a fun weekend

I think I read someplace -- there are old boater's and there are bold boater's - but there ain't no old bold boater's.

Being safe is ALWAYS the right choice -

HmMM , I can actually finally run this boat with the new motors for an extended time without 4 hours of cleaning the bilge, turning new oil into diesel black soot, turning exhaust valves red while blowing oil out the exhaust.
