Whats new guys? I am finally back in the water back at my old marina that we left last year, we came back.
If you remember I had port engine problems last year well I got the full treatment tune ups done to both engines by the mechanics at the marina these last couples of weeks. Also some surprises....both coils were shot and had to replace the port engine starter because of the positive wire connection becoming loose and arcing quit working.
Again another surprise they found was that both chokes were wired open. No wonder it was a cold beast to start all the the time.
Now it is a hot blooded racing machine
. It was a bittersweet launch without my second in command by my side but my life will continue and the memories I will never forget my wife Susan.
Now with all this rain that we have had the Illinois river is almost up to 25 ft which usually when the Coast Guard shuts the river traffic down. Father's day weekend looks like I will not be boating.
But glad to be back!
Roger
