Ahh, lawn mower...now it all makes sense. I gave up on the grass years ago, I have a farmer hay the fields. Gets cut twice a season...so much easier.

Mr.kogs wins! It is something that takes up space; and the upkeep on one can on the list with boat upkeep. If this was a L/M Forum I would post a question.
Mr.rude; waiting !on the outcome of the rear calibers

Worked on my wiring for the trolling motor. Why is it when amateurs work on wiring it always looks like a beaver chewed the wires wires in two....

Bought a deer hunting truck off a lease.Same thing; wires were black and under gauge wire, Didn't keep it long!
Put fresh gas in; let it run while I washed the boat (in the shade; 95 dg outside).Might be ready for after "M" Day.

I call those "flying rat nests". Nobody ever thinks that someone may come along behind them.

I had a blow boater come in and every single wire was red, no tags, no nothing...sent him down the road fast, as he was a sailor and I have yet to meet one that will pay to make it right.
Yah rats nest it was. He actually paid to have the entire sailboat rewired, even the 110 volt side. One day it was not running right, carb problem. He said I thought you overhauled the motor? No sir, we just fixed the wiring......lol

I'll post up some pics after dinner. Been welding a.super old piece of cast Al that brokr. It's the tilt bracket thing from one of the old add on evinrude tilt in the electric shift days I believe.

also got the friends 15 yr old to help put down the plywood on that pontoon redeck I posted earlier.

Spent a couple hours trying to install one of these darn I drive whatever graph, gps, trolling motor, behind wiper, etc...if you need this to catch fish you should consider shopping for it...
