Good Deal Camp, Glad to here all went well......I found some real nice boating glasses....Starlite by gateway safety inc. Slight wrap arounds cool colors and they are a hell of alot cheaper than the polarized oakleys that I've been feeding the chesapeake bay with over the years.

Thanks for the invite, maybe next year as that week is gonna be real busy for me, lots of things to get done around the lake house and the a-bay towards the end of the week.

I guess it was just some crud in the vapor separator from the fuel pump change clogging it up and making it starve for gas.

Just usually buy the cheap ones cause usually end up in the drink or sit on them and breakem, had a nice pair of O's once and they lasted about 2 weeks.....
