She doesn't like the big black Mercury Outboard from the looks of it. LOL! Yes I see progress. Glad to hear your still at it. It won't be long now. Have a good vaca. Cali is a long haul. Lots of free radicals...

Finally got to take the boat out and run it today for the first time since i started this project. Have to say I'm pretty pleased looks like the hard work is paying off. Still have some stuff to do but at least I can say I know what it runs like. Top speed was 53 at 5700 rpm. So I think my prop is pretty much spot on since I think wot is suppose to be 5600-5800.

No scuppers since it was a I/o originally. Handles about same as it did when it still had the inboard. I'm very happy with the set up as a whole. Still have little things here and there that need to be addressed but for a 30+ year old boat that's to be expected. I'll see if I can dig up any more photos and send them to you. Most of the ones I have of the swap are in this thread. I'm not the biggest pic taker just wanted to get it done. It's been almost a year now that I've been running it with this set up.
