I look at collecting and repairing outboard motors as therapy. Started collecting after I retired, keeps you going, using the brain, makes you think, keeps muscles from tightening up. You learn what makes a motor tick, how to go about fixing problem.
Its satisifing to get a motor running like it should, whether it be a fishing boat or a runabout with a outboard that you rebuilt.
You got something you can depend on, that didn’t cost you an arm and a leg. Sell a few outboards once in awhile, to at least break even. Its a nice feeling to hear that outboard running like a fine swiss watch that you just repaired.
So therapy isn’t cheap, as long as your having fun, and waiting for the next AOMCI swap meet comes along.
I guess you can always sit in the house and watch t.v. and get fat
