Well Guys,

I got the 87 200hp Johnson I picked up from Ebay put on the boat and wired up. We took it to the lake Sunday and backed it in for some testing. It ran so well that we took it off the trailer and ended up spending over an hour running around! All the work was worth it as I now have a running boat! Engine runs smooth through the entire band and idles perfectly.

It's kind of weird- I mean, I've never had a used vehicle/motor kind of thing bolt on and work out so well. I was expecting a carb rebuild or some crap like that but.... Even the prop that came with it seems to be right on the money. This frickin' thing hauls the mail. *;D Speedo wasn't working quite right, but I'm borrowing my buddy's GPS for my next run.
