Hey all, Just wanted to stop by and let you's know all is well. she is still running like a champ..<br /><br />Finally found a perfect cold starting procedure..
Like a champ!!!... last year I was out 15 times... off shore with her.. 4-5 miles and not a worry in the world...lol Ive been thru our inlet where if she was to die.. that be the end of my boat.. but she has been puring since that day.. I still think back saying.. Man there is noway I can do this.. but with all your great help I'm looking forward to another year of trouble free boating!!<br /><br />WOOT!!
Nope...Thought about a kicker but.. I just want to use the one I have.. and boatUS is only 100 and some $'s and it gives me a great piece of mind when im out...
excellent post hotrod very insightful and great to see you come back with an update on it, enjoyed the read, <br />i know that i would be in capable hands if i ever get stuck <br />bloody legends
