Still no Wal-Mart and plenty of water. I've taken some of my friends out for their first ride on a SeaCraft and they are truly impressed. Next time you get up here, give me a shout.

Glad to hear that Wally mart has stayed away from there! Will definitely give you a holler next time I get up there, maybe next summer!

RonBrooks - you need to post some speed/mpg numbers when you get that sucker dialed in! Would be interested to hear what prop you're running. I'd recommend running the full synthetic XD100 oil - I understand that it uses so little oil and burns so clean you don't ever have to worry a decarbing engine if you use that stuff, so may save $ in long run!

Soon as I get my new GPS/sounder mounted and the wiring done I will post some numbers. I got under the console to find out why my trim tabs quit working after the new engine was installed. Found a broken splice. One thing led to another and I have the whole wiring bundle loose and am now going to do it right. 39 years of "people" wiring under that console - you can imagine. So, I have new wire, new terminals, new switch plate, etc.

Ron,

Congrats on the initiative. TAKE your TIME and a LOT of pictures.

Think of this as Romper Room; we learn from and understand pictures best!

BigLew,

I took the wiring redo on my 20SF over to the Repair/Mod discussions
