Got out Sunday, but never even got up on plane..... Boat fired right up, idled out and then turned on the Stereo and Starbord motor stalled. Optis need good batteries and my Starboard battery must have had just enuff juice to fire it up once. As soon as the Amps turned on it killed it... Starboard motor would not fire back up. All is good, she just needs a good charge.. (my fault for not putting it on the charger Saturday). This weekend looks nice, however I have the dash torn apart now. Hopefully I can get her back together by Saturday. Would like to go for a ride faster than 12 MPH....

How was the river? Much debris? I am dying to get out there but the boat is still at AADS getting a new drive and transome assembly.

It's Michigan. If its not raining or snowing, its time to go boating! Hell, I have a Center Console (no wind protection), and we tuff it out.
