You first ...  Heh heh. Yo David fwiw these things are downright deafening with the cover off. This one's loud enough with it on?

Keep chopping up the Johnsons and Evinrudes and a factory rep in Florida will give you a new motor just to stop the negative exposure. LOL.

Yeah that's my plan David. Heh heh

Well she ran like a champ today, not a single hiccup. Think we mighta finally worked the bugs outa this pig. (Don't say too loud.)

Ya she is a lil sinister looking Ross. Specially looking down the bow. But that was just serendiptitious. Tbk I ain't really all that into looking sinister. Have a hard enough time getting laid trying to look nice?

Hey don't ferget I got the C500 sittin here. Me'n Bobby Beer were lookin at it last night. On the rebuild difficulty scale that thing's a 4 or mebbe 5. Transom, 2x4 keel stringer, 20" wide floor. Piece of cake. Now all's I need is some money ...
