Thanx for the kind words. It did feel nice, we were on lake Houston. Couple things happened, ran out of gas on the way back in. that little motor drinks some gasgas. Was towed in immediate ly :facepalm:. Ok when we came in I went to start the motor but the starter just spin, it wasn't ingage the flywheel.messed w it a few times And it wod start up. I was real happy w the way it ran. Also took in more water than I'd like to see.
