Yeah like draining fuel in the bildge and letting the bildge pump send it overboard. I mean who cares you just went from an 80mph boat to a 90. Whatever it takes.

Joe you might think about two smaller upper pulleys and shoot for 79.99, then we can grille some steaks on the blowers and have a celebratory party to honor the milestone!
