MAN!!!! i am so in love with this motor!! yes, it's too small for the boat and subsequently gets sh!tty economy. BUT...... this thing runs FLAWLESSLY!!! thanks to Spare, who walked me through much of getting it running, it starts with the tap of the key. sounds like the sweetest music you ever heard. it pisses like a racehorse! if only it were on a little 18 whaler outrage, or a 19 mako or something similar. i don't ever want to get rid of it. it's the best running outboard i've ever seen in my life!!
i may try to sell the hull at the end of the season and find a little center console that's in need of power. if it wasn't so dam difficult to post pictures and videos, you could all see how beautiful this thing runs.
