    Quill, take two

    It's been fun watching her progress Troy. Nothing is better than spending each day ,the entire day with your new charge. Some of us are lucky enough to have that luxury to that and at this point in life I wouldn't want it any other way.

    The old outboard is on its way out.

    I run a 9.9 Suzuki electric start 100.1 2 from the late 80s I just took it out of winter storage ,fired right up. I normally run Johnson's. Suzuki makes a great outboard. and yes still it's still oil injection and the 100.1 ratio keeps ticking almost 40 years later
