unless you have jumped in Lake Michigan on January 1st in Sheboygan Wisconsin with an air temp of 5, and a water temp of 33, you dont know cold....... that lump in my throat is where I used to pee from. I was smart/dumb enough to do that twice

We scuba dived a ship wreck out of Port Washington, WI in late December one year. Had to pour hot water in the suit before jumping in. That was back when I was young enough to do just about anything once.

My x lived in miami for just over a year and I was out there every 4-6 weeks and those dinosaurs were everywhere like flies on poo. That was 3 years ago. I hear it's much worse now

on another note i am trying to figure out if i will still be able to use this short shaft by setting it back to its original position on the trim unit, even though i have raised the hull , i figured it would be helpful for splash, also if anyone knows , im trying to figure out what gauges work with this 1997 40 hp 2 stroke, seems i might have the right gauge but im not seeing how its wired from factory with harness, so it might be a situation where i splice in
