Yea She Floats!!

Good news from the north there MJ. I'm sure you'll be happy with her this year in the snot. Hopefully we won't be hearing about you testing out the bilge pumps anytime soon. You ought send that old EVINRUDE to me though and I'll send you mine. Them older engines are getting hard to find, and get the best milage of any of the big JOHNNY-RUDES. I looked but couldn't find a good small bore block so I just got my block back today. Hopefully next week once I get caught up I'll get mine back in the water and get some break-in time on her.

Yea I hope I am not testing the pumps either!!

Yea I also like my motor!! The one at home had all mid 90's for compression when I got it, but the eletrical was messed up and all the paint peeling off, I just did not have the no how or time to go thru it so I got another.
But I would love to have her all built up and ready to go, if something was to go wrong with mine!! Love to send it to you for a rehab.

Hope you are in the water soon!! The season is short enough around here that I feel like I have already missed to much of it.

Next time we need pictures of enough blood on deck to warrant a crime scene investigation and a heart attack on LS's part.

Congrats MJ, she looks great.
Those Sea Ox's look like heavy boats, how much does that baby weigh?.
How's it on gas so far?.
