Garage - very nice! That's one sexy clean motor compartment (and motor for that matter).

I too wish I had a garage to tuck my baby into.

BTW - nice Kubota ;) 8)

I laid out of work today and was weed eating the yard @7:30am (Main Muff) cut the grass yesterdayworked/fixed the john boat this morning (rebuily carb abd installed new throttle cable and roller). Works great.

Mowed my sons grass and weedeated his. (he fell 12/21 of last yr and destroyed his right elbow (still is having operations for it). Came home and finished the V-20 motor repower. I fired it up at 2:00 and it fired up on first crank. Now I just need to put all the acc back in and wash the boat so it's ready for this weekend.

Busy day :P :P :P

Re: Repowering
 

Finished all the acc work including installing a new tach. The old one was showing 2100 rpm at idle and the needle would stck when tthe power was off and then rotating clockwise all the way around so I put a new one in with a hour meter built in the tach.

The main muff helped me all day finishing the Vee and washing it, so tomorrow (Sunday) if we get sun as they are calling for we're going riding in the V and swimming.

Hope everything works as planned.
