You have a fine son. Well respected and admired. I don't attend his church, but, hear good things about him. I would like to meet you next time you're up here, maybe take a boat ride! I think alot of Mack. They were associated until Mack started Carolina Classic. All of them are in tough shape right now.

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!

Ron, spoke to my fishing buddy who knows David and attends his church. Next time you are up here, we're going to take you and David fishing. Are you here yet?

Actually we will be there by tomorrow (Thursday) night and leave to come back home Tuesday. I think we plan to fish Sat or more likely Monday since Sat is Halloween. Under the bay bridge for rockfish. If you can do this it would be awesome! I was going to drag my boat up there but I have a u-haul trailer load of furniture for David that I have to take. PM me you number and I will call you. We head out early in the morning.
