  • Ok, ticking things off one at a time.
    motor re assembled with fresh rings and a little less material on the head.
    Transom clamp repaired with a timesert style sleeve and a new clamp. Yes I know it doesn’t match. But it’s functional and maybe next winter I’ll make up a pair of new matching clamps or use merc ones.


    All the screw holes from the old transom plate have been filled with west systems. And the new is ready to install next weekend.
    Possible testing this weekend if weather permits. We’ll see.

    • Had a little test session last Friday,
      Water was pretty rough, and the 9 degree above freezing temp made it a short session.
      Enough to break in the rings though as after the motor had cooled it posted the best compression numbers I have seen from it.
      Boats are loaded in the trailer and we leave tomorrow morning for Lincoln Maine.
      As a side note I'm also scheduled to participate in the marathon in an A runabout.
      I've never driven a runabout before so it should be interesting if not entertaining.

        You may need to double up on the knee pads
