    Thanks to all..!!!

    Watching the needle nosedive is depressing, but you’re right: how much gas am I really burning during my (short) boating summer? 80? More? Less? Certainly not enough to justify the cost of a different engine. And, also true, I can work on this one myself….can’t say that about more modern engines.

    And it runs good and it’s a real head-turner, too!

    What’s not to love, right? Just have to be careful not to run out while in the middle of the lake….
