When I ran into Eric he told me it had been in the works for months (I too just kept my mouth shut).....The seller used to be my next door neighbor and still lives about 10 min away.

Eric only said that because I couldn't get any "cooler" 10 years ago.......so he was just admiring the fact that nothing has changed in that time! LOL

I just need to have my Cafe club membership revoked now - two cigs takes up a lot of space on a 1/3 acre lot....

Got some stuff to work through - couple leaking water pumps, "dry pipes" have some water flowing out so I'm guessing the tails are leaking since the headers only have a couple hours on them, idle issue on one motor, small oil leak that I think is just a fitting on the cooler and I'm planning to convert to closed cooling right away since they have aluminum heads.

Yes it's Neil's old boat - he's still masquerading around in his cig related screen name!!

For the record, Russ is no cooler now than he was 10 years ago.....
Great looking Tiger! Congrats

Does it still have the Sonny Leonard power?

Yes. It's had two successive rounds of SL power. 615 cube NA Merlin blocks.

Ordering my closed cooling packages tomorrow to protect those aluminum heads. Hardin Marine stainless sea water pumps are on the way. Can't wait to get it in the water.

Got to get the right props on it next year. 26's probably aren't right, and is at least like some lab work done....
