[Paul L Fisher]

I thought you were leaving?

Anyhow, a SHO motor would make a crappy boat motor. Boat motors need low end

It's a 21.8 WellCraft Single screw BB Ford. with trailer she comes in at 
3645. But does 64MPH across the water! Now if I can just find a sturdy 
enough row boat to drop a 3.2 SHO motor into!
