Hope you get better JB. I still lurk from time to time. I parked the little Whaler for a while due to the drought and Scoutmaster duties. Just started it up tonight. Cranked right up just like an old 1968-ish handbuilt Johnnyrude 40 hp Frankenmotor will do,,,, I learn a lot more than I knew about the motors from you and the others on here....
