Cool

It is always a good idea to have a get home engine. And I love how creative you are in rigging it to your swim platform ladder.... but how is the board secured to the platform?. All I can see in the pics is a board between the handlebars and the engine clamped to that board. I'm just concerned that it's not just wedged there, because until you see it, it's hard to realize just how much torque is applied by even a small 2.5 engine. Not saying it won't work, just saying that I'd hate for you to see your engine break off and go to the bottom of the lake. (Make sure you have a safety cable attached to the engine at the very least).

Other than that I love what you're doing with that boat. She looks great and it's easy to see that she's got a good home. Well done!!!!

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

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.
