Also, after the ride with you I am no longer a four stroke guy. However, I am into torque and will be shopping an Etec 175 when the time comes.

As for the MA, I am busting my Azz to get ready for the trip to Homosassa. I think I can pull it off. Fired the 99 OMC 175 three weeks ago. She is starving for fresh air! And should have my OMC mechanic on board for MacRae's. Looking forward to getting back.

Thanks

Hope to see you at MacRae's . . . looks like a neat spot! I agree, it's hard to beat the DI 2-strokes for torque, and they're basically very simple engines with a lot fewer moving parts! I've been very impressed with what BRP has done to make 'em quiet, with excellent quality, economy, low maintenance and sophisticated electronics! And I think you'll be better balanced with the motor hanging on the transom! That should be a nice rig when finished!

This looks similar to my conversion from I/O to outboard vision. I reached out to a member who did a one off engine cowl similar to a Sea Vee, but he did not have a mold. If I were very careful removing glass integrated portions of the original Dog Box, would anyone be interested in building a mold for reproduction. This one is really in great shape?!? Maybe Hermco?

I guess it's time I learn to correctly size my pics.... Apologies.
