Gary may need to come down and have you teach me to drive the thing.
Yea John, Instigator will be holding my hand on the Transom work (at least coaching by phone) I sold everything I own as OMC stuff goes, you may want to look at what Instigator did on his OMC (put Merc lower units on the OMC and his breaking problem went away) John your baot looks great, I need to get up your way and take a look before next season.
Brad just let me know what is a good weekend for you, I need to get the stuff out of the green boat prior to you coming so you can take it home for Joey. There are always Crown and Cokes at my place.

Sounds like you have a LOT of work to do, if it turns out like the last 2 I saw that you did it will be very sweet. Good luck you are going to love it.
