1st Merc!!
Came back from Charleston w/more than a FAT THANKSGIVING BELLY!!...
 Me and Spare jumped on it w/Spare of course doin' all the HEAVY LIFTIN'...once we got 'er hung, he had the carbs off in no time flat and in the cleanin' machine...dropped the foot and stuck in a new water pump and changed the foot oil, so all serviced down there...I managed to get the control box mounted in spite of my limited talents..new control cables hooked up...spare pops on the newly cleaned carbs...power to it...fuel to it...cables to it...turn the key and as soon as the fuel got thru the carbs, she runnin' like a new singer sewin' macheen!!...thought this cool cuz hasn't run since 2009...ran great in the yard, so we hooked 'er up and went for wet test...ran GREAT...wish I had some pics from that, but left camera elsewhere...oh well... She my 1st Merc, and I couldn't be HAPPIER!!...   Thanks Vic!!...a deal I couldn't refuse!!!...I owe ya, Buddy!!    And BIG THANKS to Spareparts!!...talk about "GEETER DUNNE!!"...best advice I can give ya is stand back and watch...just don't get in the way!!...  Still got one little issue to hurdle...small leak in the T & T unit...soon as my upstate tech gets the Merc seal, she'll be chasin' striped bass on Lake Hartwell..gonna have a visitor in late Jan..gotta be ready!!...

That's a lot of off shore juice for an old timer like you, make sure to turn your hat around backwards when you gun it.
Congrats my friend Good job Dave

Congrats on the Merc. I think you'll be REELy happy with it.
That's basically the same engine I have on my Cruisers Inc... soon to be on the V21 I think. It should make your boat fly across the waves... !!! Nice job Spare...
