Step 6: Belated update

A lot has changed in almost a year. The Mercury engine has been sold. I got it going again but did have some trust issues with such an old engine and I was able to sell it for a good price. The new owner was pretty pleased. 

I have a new engine, a surprise birthday present, a 1992 Johnson 30 HP. I works and is behind the boat so I have been out and about a few times. I am really pleased with how it runs. At present it will do 46 km/h on GPS. However with some work it should run a bit better. I need to have a good look at the prop, one blade seems off and the engine does vibrate a lot. On the lost run I also noticed some white smoke so may need to have a look at the water flow. 

Further I have been gathering some stuff here and there, MOB switch, fire extinguisher etc. I will post some pictures soon.
