new prop

well Darell and I just got back from Erie propellor in Point Place and as usual the guys there hooked us up(bigtime Thanks Jim!) with a "used" prop someone bought and installed it on their boat for a whopping 10 minutes and took back off and returned so we got it for $85 and that includes a free prop tune up at the end of the season so now we are back in business with his boat and tomorrow I am going to pick up my new 100 hp Evinrude outboard for my speedboat... it will be nice to get that back on the water... stay tuned,,..... I am going to post a video of the boat in action

there goes another $185

what can ruin a nice day in less then a second.... a BiG Rock,.... smoked it doing about 5mph coming out of harrisons marina this afternoon, atleast we were on our way backform the islands instead of on our way out or it would have caused us to turn back, it wasnt the end of the world we were still ale to cruise at about 28-30 mph
