I haven’t passed to the great marina in the sky YET! But after passing my 70th birthday, I feel like I have, but forgot to fall down. 39 years in business and 31 of those in the Yamaha family has taken its toll. I no longer have the hustle and fortunately able to treat the business as a hobby. I no longer work on any sterndrives or inboards. Specialize mostly in Yamaha outboards and nothing over 20 years old. Even at that I pretty well pick my jobs. I need to get around to clearing out all my used Yamaha Sterndrive parts that I’ve collected and picked over since 1990. It will go to the local scrap metal dealer. 39 years of collecting junk has taken up too much space. After the wife suffering a stroke in 2017 (she came thru it fine), hurricane Michael that came close to destroying our shop in 2018, then Covid, I’m getting tired and pretty cranky.
