    I/O (Sterndrive) Conversion to Outboards

    My phone has the stylus built in. At first I thought it was going to be a gimmick but man has it come in handy at work. You can even do lock screen notes so I occasionally come back to some "fun" drawings saved. :ROFLMAO:

    Non rotted boat that was suspected rotted.

    The front mount on the inlines always rots out. Little bit of bilge water sloshing around is all it takes if the bolts aren't sealed.

    Fuel came out overflow

    Don't fill until it stops. Fill until the gauge reads full. Install a racor lifeguard otherwise. If i fill until it stops I'll get slosh out the vent until the level drops on take off... the life guard, while expensive, will stop this. With how low my tank is and how low the vent is I am prone...

    Bearing buddy issues

    I only lost the grease immediately behind the bearing buddy. It was otherwise packed flat to the lip. Nut/cotter pin still concealed

    Bearing buddy issues

    I lost my bearing buddy on my fuel up for the lake trip last year. :confused: I learned that some have a better press fit than others. The replacement needed a sledge to seat fully... thats a problem for future me when I repack them. :LOL:

    PSA for inboard gas owners.....

    If there is a leak with how mine was designed, it runs directly into the doghouse... in my use case I don't know venting around the tank makes much a difference. The bulk head is better sealed after my rebuild than factory though.

    Perpetual Debt

    I'm not paying 500k+ for a house that was 200k 3 years ago is part of the problem. My nor anyone else's pay has tripled in the last few years either. I'm not saying it can't be done... it's just is it worth it right now vs building a portfolio and waiting for the inevitable crash out and...

    Rant: Can't catch a break with weekend weather...

    My best bass fishing was usually Thanksgiving weekend. Could always limit and not burn a ton of fuel to get on the bite.

    Perpetual Debt

    They don't pay me enough to diversify more lol. I realistically have 25 years before I can consider retirement. My advisor is slowly investing and spreading things out that make sense for me but... now is (and isn't in some ways) the time to do that. Not like I'll be able to afford a house...

    Rant: Can't catch a break with weekend weather...

    As I get ready for work (48 hours so far this week) I read the forecast for today... 71 and 10-20 mph wind... I could be on a boat or OT... where did I go wrong? :LOL:

    Perpetual Debt

    I have a stand alone "in case of emergency break glass" bank account that I throw a few bucks into a week. I have the Roth IRA and pension on the other. Cash is for eating out and fun things but the primary purchases, fuel, op costs, vehicle purchases (within reason) are done on cards or...

    Rant: Can't catch a break with weekend weather...

    It's okay. I opted for some OT at work and of course the days I would normally be off are beautiful. Why make boat dollars when they can't be spent. :LOL: That being said, 40s with sun is fine boating weather for me. The girl would however disagree with that statement.
