Looks like you got a sweet deal Ferm. Congrats. I completely agree with you about engines and fuel burns. Sadly, it's a fact of life that under the present administration, we're not going to see any reduction in gas prices. I have a 12 foot Sears tri-hull Gamefisher rowboat with a 9.9 Honda 4 stroke on it for exactly that reason. I LOVE ocean fishing, but like you said, what I burn in a day with the little guy is what I burn in an hour (or less) with the V. Good luck with your new toy.

If God didn't have a purpose for us we wouldn't be here, so
Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly.

Silence, in the face of evil, is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless.
