Nothing new mind you, lots of torque involved to light an engine off... The more compression an engine has, the more critical things become.

I read and enjoy your comments here, and also can't help feeling sorry for some of the engine problems that you have suffered. I trust you, and my sincere hope is that you will find a competent outfit to perform any work on your boat that you for what ever reason elect to outsource to them.

Here's to a short learning curve [ for you ], and a long and very Happy boating future!!
Best of luck to you and your's,



Terry

Thanks Terry... It has been a long road but she performed beautifully this weekend. Ran to Alton for lunch with my wife and son. Met up with Sunset Bob. Great seeing you... Then all the way home... Yesterday made it to Braun Bay then back.... Wow A LOT of boat traffic and saw many captn bone head moves..... But its the 4th so what do you expect.

Now I remember why I normally don't put in on the 4th and watch from the dock. But all in all Great weekend..

Boat is on the trailer.. Off to VA tomorrow at 3 AM... Have a safe week everyone. Will post pics when I get back... Can't wait to hammer the stick down and race the James!
