They’re heavy for me as well and are getting
heavier every year. Its why I got rid of the
first one. I find they are easier to handle with
the gas tank off. Then I put the tank back on
once its on the boat. The guy I gave my first
one to also has a 1960’s 18hp. Johnson. The
lightning is just as fast and according to him
its 20lbs. lighter. I know someone who might
want this one after I get to run it some. Don’t
plan on keeping it either.

A "Boathouse Repair" is one thats done without having tools or the skills to do it properly.
