Ugh I wish mine was running, but it'll be put away this weekend. Then pulling the lower unit, carb and fuel sender/tank issues next spring.

Can't wait for that ::)

Pull those parts now Josh. Get them all repaired over the winter. Then come spring you are ready to play! Plus the carb shop and other places have more time during the winter to get things done.

Yeah, you're probably right Jason.

The wife is out of town this weekend so we'll have to see if my little boys give me any time to work on it. Otherwise there's always next weekend. It'll probably hard freeze soon after that so time's a tickin'!

I'm waiting for the stars to line up before I put the boat away. Cold weather, a heavy wind in the same direction as the river current to set a new MPH mark with the blade sharpened 22" Raker. LOL.

I drained the water out of the 140....just in case....but she's not winterized yet! The river isn't iced over yet!
