I wouldn't worry about hijacking this thread, it keeps right with the original subject.
Plus it never bothered me when my threads get hijacked (other forums), in fact I kinda like it as it keeps conversations going.

February 17, 2010:
'90 Evinrude 225 turning a 14 1/2 X 19 stainless. I hit 53.? mph on GPS at 5600 rpms into the wind and current before I blew the rings out. ![]() P.S. This was lightly loaded with just me and about 40+/- gallons of gas on board.

Bradford, good speed. Sorry to hear that about the motor. Been there, I feel your pain. Nothing screws up a good day on the water like motor trouble.

Thats the thought that entered my mind after slowing down and hearing the spray paint rattle can sound.
