Back from the Keys! Phatt told me what you said about tilting her up alittle. That did work. Along with a linkage adjustment for the trigger. He left a week later than me to come down. I paid a tech $25 to trouble shoot the ignition and he said the motor had a weak trigger. I guess boat are like computers, your better off learning how to fix them yourself. Thank god for shop manuals.

Rap, Thanks for that. Thats the experieced advice that counts. I would have kept on idling that baby tilted down till I killed all the mosquitos. Then what would all the stores in the keys sell? Well, bait and still tons of ice.

I'll have to post the dolphin pics from this year when I get them developed. Wifey forgot to pack the digital so had to buy some disposables down there.
Rap how was the Florida trip to the cape? I guess we passed you on our way down. But I was thinkin you were havin some bad weather on your trip. I hope you caught some fish though.
