Yes it should have. As far as that cable?? I'm not sure it's that because it worked after the drive was serviced. I took it out and used it that foggy day. John said they replaced the top cap only....so we will see. I want them to test it before I take it back. Maybe they will put me in the water there and you could come out for a ride.

It could also be the barrell that holds the shift cable inside the plastic linkage. I've seen them pull out, it's a two minute fix. If you're down at the marina today, I can take a quick look for you.

I'll PM you my cell #, should be there in about an hour or so.

I ran from Ocean City to Philadelphia as well. I also went from Sandy Hook up the Hudson (yes a river) to Havestraw.

Someday, I want to do NY to Florida in a cruiser. Just building up hours and trying to gain as much knowledge and experience as possible.

As far as Pt Pleasant is concerned, and I can only speak for myself. It's a fun run, but I have no idea where to dock and hang out once I get there.

What inlet are you closest to???
