I knew I could count on you guys for a quick logical response. No, I have not had the 200 surveyed, but will soon. Subject to that, I'll probably go ahead and run it til it becomes a problem as many have suggested. With no tune up and having sat outside for 2 years, she pushed the 23 to almost 45 with a light load. The good news is she is now in fresh water for the duration.

Fellowship - You'll be happy to know that the Four Boat Theory will soon be ending as the Carver Aft Cabin will be sold in the next 10 days if all goes well. That frees up a lot of cash and seasonal expense. Once the 23 is back online, I'll probably sell the 16 Whaler Dauntless and stick with the 23 for a while. Ultimately, however, I can see myself with only the fully renovated 1971 20' Seafari with a Hermco bracket and a new 175 4 stroke. Oh my! - a One Boat Theory! What is happening? Wisdom at 48?

Thanks for the comments guys...
