I think my comment was pretty tasteful, complimentary, and tame. Maybe i am missing something... I think it interesting that there was only one part of the comment that was quoted. I only ask that folks read really well what was typed / stated.

I stand by what I state

If i need to explain to people, wheres the smarts? The statement suggested: Larry, you have talent, but you also have a history of bashing others. Seems to me thats not piling on, thats starting a new idea that no one else has stated yet, to date. Moreover, Its being pretty individual by sticking my neck out and going against the group by stating, Larry has talent, yet Larry needs to be a bit more mature. Yet you decide to put an icon of a bulldozer....makes me think...

I think my argument speaks for itself, what do you think?

Again lets see some 24s. Maybe its cabin fever.

Signing off, have a 1956 12' aluma craft to restore with a 1957 johnson 5.5 hp (21.3 mph gps).

Finally worked an 8 hr. shift.Got some needed rest and then removed the hatch cover and
backseat . Then removed the K-plane tank and motor ( one piece ). After removal, it was easy
to see where the 10w40 oil went .. Filled the reservoir, remounted everything, and had the wife
hit the up/down button, while I stood at the back of the boat. Everything works perfect. No
leaks! Hope these braided hoses I replaced last another 20 years! I'm ready to clean the boat up and go to the lake!

that is a great looking boat. Where did you get the trim lines from? Needing a set of extra long 15' lines

It's a vibratory roller, not a bulldozer. There is a difference you know...............:D

I called Mercury Marine or Mercury Racing, and explained what I had.Told them the length
etc. Took them a few min. to give me a part number.They will not sell to the public, so I
had them ship them to Mel Smith, at Smith Marine, in Minden, La. Mel is a great guy.They run
their business the way you don't see much anymore. Good Christian family...Mel shipped them on
over to Texas for me.
My lines were like #3 AN fittings, about 10 inches long. If they had been larger, I would have made
them up myself, as I can make #4 and larger, any length. I have about $2,000 worth of hoses
and fittings left over from my drag racing days. My lines were close to the #3 size, but were not
AN type. More like inverted flare. Strictly a factory part, and about $90 for the pair.I went to every
hydraulic hose supplier in my area, and nobody could make them for me. Just worked more overtime
and ordered them! Good luck with yours......

thanks. Yup, no one carries that stuff. Cant wait till i have to re do
