    Rec gas prices???

    Technically true but the Mercruiser was a 1978, carburetor engine that may have been 4 stroke, but was far from fuel efficient. plus the engine and outdrive itself added considerable more weight. I saw a noticeable difference in fuel efficiency with the new setup, very noticeable.

    Yeah, the falling lizards story made it up here to. Seems more weather extremes these days, cold and warm. Part of that might be that we report on it more too, but here where I live, the winters are definitely milder then when I was growing up.
