Great pics, I'm jealous!

I hope to be on a regular boating schedule in the next couple of weeks.

Said that all looked ok inside, oil was clean and green. So they replaced the seal and gave it back to me. I'm going to head back dowwn tomorrow and finish it up and run it. Are you around this weekend? If I still hear the noise I'm going to have to have another set of ears listen.

Bob is an animal! Tore it down had all the repairs done before saturday morning! Didn't get the parts til thursday! And in the midst of all his work he had time to stop by the marina and give me a hand on the 500EFI I was working on. Good people down on the bay!

So what did they find wrong with your drive John?
Thanks Buddy ! You saved the day for us ... ran the boat 90 plus miles yesterday ... all seems normal ... air/fuel tune a little rich up to 4200 rpm ... still have to straight arm it for a final checkout . Diamond Performance (Bill) stopped by to help install the repaired engine ... Thanks Bill !

Nice multiport combustion chamber you have there Bob. Let's hope the JB Weld holds this time

Its a gum wrapper and JB weld Dave. Or is that what we wrap around a fuse when it blows? See you all this weekend! We may have to stop over at the floating condo and visit my nephew Jesse.

We usually don't come off plane we did it for the poker run. A group of boats all coming at the bridge at once can get a bit hairy.
