it runs suprisingly well... the old 115 pushs it fine for now... scrubbing and replacing the wood leaning post .. trim tabs... may look at transom replacement over the winter before trying to repower.. going to run it for a while and check the burn numbers .. if the old tower of power isnt to bad i may try to stay with it for the classic look.. the original plan was to close the transom... but im not so shure yet..
