Dave,

You can always come out, help, take photos, whatever.

I will be putting in a few hours in at the lake tomorow...Not fun - just prop testing, weight distribution and engine height adjustments.

You doing it yourself? :) Going to a shop? Adding an axle? Paint? Fenders? Cat walks?

Dave,

You can always come out, help, take photos, whatever.

I will be putting in a few hours in at the lake tomorow...Not fun - just prop testing, weight distribution and engine height adjustments.

Wish "someone" would've let me know that a little ahead of time.. LOL I can't tomorrow, I have to run up to LA for some RDP biz n what not. If you're going to be around over the weekend let me know I'll take some pics and vids.

You bought another v-drive?

I will find out for you tomorrow.. I typically use Outdrive1, or dirty deeds.. :D

Guy called me yesterday with an early 60's biesemeyer.. I think I still have his # if your interested. he bought the boat for the motor and wants to sell the boat. Said it's old, but decent shape, probably 1000 - 1500? Boat was in water not to long ago, so all the running gear is there and period correct.

I'm not real happy about it so I probably won't take any pics:swear

But I will bash the manufacturer if he doesn't take care of it:cool:

Don't bash the mfg.. Instead tell us the cause, and show us the solution.
