On Lake Michigan. My condo in on the Saint Joseph River, about a mile from the pierheads. I forgot to add in my intro what's happening with the engines from PV. My son is picking up a Sanger pickle jet, so one of the engines is being rebuilt for it. The other two parting out. I'll put up a few pix of PV before I took it apart.

And a few pics of my 1969 Glasspar Avalon with a 1967 Johnson 80 Electromatic.

I don't understand why the pics are very fuzzy until they are clicked on. Am I posting them the correct way?

I had a 1964 Barron flatbottom (Red Mountain). Was going to restore it until a tree fell on it. Somehow the original owner's son found us and wanted to buy it before the tree fel on it, but didn't want to sell.
My son got hold of him after the tree incident. And in the end, we gave him the boat and the trailer to restore. All we asked was 400 bucks for the new tires that had to be put on the trailer so he could tow it back to the west coast. He's restoring it now.

Triple shifters with twin throttles?

if you missed this picture, it provides a better angle. its 3 and 3. The one you were looking at does in fact appear that way. but if you look at the base of the levers you can see the tall throttle covers up/hides the shifter.
