I guess u are better off now u know exactly what you have. You should talk to Bob Garone if you need someone to wire it. His work is incredible

Joe, Did you get the wheel and hub? can you post or text me a picture of it? If you want I have Bob Garones number he is still in Deer Park, Not sure how much marine work he is doing these days he has some other interests at the moment but you could ask.
ECM does some nice wiring Too.
Who rigged it the first time it sure doesnt look professional, did you find any wire nuts?

When will it be running again?

**Dirk Pitt** · 11-17-2015, 11:32 AM

Billy I'm not going to comment on what I found it speaks for itself as far as rigging yes that's a Joey job nothing on the wheel yet I post pictures when I get it

Thank you Dirk Pitt!

I applaud you for your efforts in putting together your Tuff 21/E-tech rig. First, your decision to go white was commendable. Going Merc would have been easy and routine. You stepped out of our Mercury community comfort zone and thus you have provided the Forum with a wealth of knowledge about the Evinrude product and also a great deal of information concerning a SOB that most south of the border are not familiar with. From the moment that I met you Joe, I was impressed with your character, knowledge and passion for outboard performance. Your attention to detail in squeezing every ounce of performance from the Tuff is incredible. I have no doubt that ultimately you will achieve top #'s from your rig. Your thread has been amazing Joe and I thank you for your efforts.
