4 cyl - 2 carbs. electric choke

That is funny right there..

Black is pretty normal on plugs. Shiny and new scares me. I'll wait on smarter folks to chime in but I had one of those old 50's with the brown stripes. I was a kid and I couldn't wear it out. Leaking carbs meant it had a stuck needle and seat. For me at least, the motor was simple enough I...

Thanks. Doing HVAC work. "If hell had air conditioning there would be a lot more sinners" - just saying...

Or a 300XS Merc or a pair of 2.5 ROS and a couple extra fuel tanks:sun:

Turned around is about right. I've been working for almost six months now.

Hang in there MJ Your not alone...:pray2:

Yup, it is a sickness. I would do the same sans the upper station...and 4-stroke.. You may want to move some weight fore in the boat and consider moving the fish box, batteries and whatever else you can use as ballast toward the bow. Stern weight will be an issue if you don't. V:beer:

Yeah, Hard to justify a vacation when your not working.. Luckily I solved that problem. Been working steady for 2 months or better... Happy day!!!

Ain't it nice. The Opti makes fuel too down low.. I saw 4 and 5 mpg offshore last in the keys. I have never seen it so calm for the week we were there. Seas 1' or less... I said YES and went trolling out of Marathon. Went 40 miles SE and another 10 N. I was closer to Islamorada when I...

Go for it. But be safe. LOL! It has been too long. My V is too slow. Maybe It needs a new E-tec....

Good to be heard from..:sun:

I scrambled to get the boats out of Suwannee. Drug them back to Lakeland where the eye passed damn close if not directly over my house. Estimate of sustained winds near 80 with gusts of 100. It was rocking the vehicles in the driveway like no tomorrow. No power for 5 days. No structural...

It almost don't hurt my feelings when we don't limit out. LOL! Cleaning them is far from my favorite pastime. Look at it this way; You get to be with family while running the boat, picnic, swimming, could be worse. In other words, the catching is a bonus. No intel from me yet, sorry...

My county said no when I asked them...:bat:

LOL, cool. Weight will mash that plywood in nicely. Good job.

I hit the t-top ahile pulling it with the Tahoe. Idle only but it stopped the rig and truck in its tracks.. It ripped the floor and tweaked the top. I have managed to make the repairs. Upon close investigation, the floor is made from Coosa and faired well. I did that during the rebuild...

Weight, shoulda added weight to the plywood to press it into the adhesive. My .02 probably a little late now. :embarsed:
