Default Most durable outboard, duma$$ boater

True story, and I know the guy...

This gentleman enjoyed an afternoon of fishing, then loaded his 19' Center console w/ a Yam 90 fourstroke on the drive-on trailer. Then he proceeded to climb onto the dock, got in his truck, and drove from OC to Salisbury, MD.

Here is where the story gets ugly. When he backed into the driveway, he got out of his truck to find that the motor was STILL RUNNING!. :o At this point the motor was still running, but was described as having "a bad rattle." ::)

He took it into the shop, and the whole thing was toast. Ended up purchasing a new motor. The meter on the old showed 4 hours, and 40 minutes of that was the fateful trip home :o
