Default Got me a slip for the season…….

Well, the boss wants a slip because she foresees a disaster if we trailer. Gotta make her happy. So the nose on the lower unit has anti fouling paint. I have no clue how much of the motor will be in the water, when tilted up. If it’s completely out of the water or mostly out of the water, will I need to put zincs on it? Will I be able to hook up a hose and flush it without running it? I’ve never had an outboard in a slip. I have so many questions.
By the way, I started her up yesterday after sitting for a week. Fired up on the second shot. I have no idea what it’s gonna do once in the water but so far, so good. I don’t wanna jinx anything but I just need to pump out some of the old gas, pump some fresh on top of it and away we go.
We should be ready to splash in 2 weeks.
