  1. No, I,m still "out there". I am just curious in case I ever find myself in a low fuel situation. Thanks for the reply.
  2. OK, I've run out of gas on my 200 hp outboard and someone stops and gives me 2 gals. Will I get further at idle speed or on plane?
  3. DEPENDS ON WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR. YOU CAN FIND A SMALL USED BOAT FOR 5k. GET OUT TO SOME DEALERS AND LOOK AROUND. ALSO, CHECK CRAIGS LIST. HAVE A MECHANIC CHECK IT OUT BEFORE YOU PURCHASE. SOUNDS LIKE YOUR HUSBAND IS A LUCKY FELLOW.
  4. LOOK AT A CAROLINA SKIFF. BUY A NEW ENGINE AS WELL. PUT SOME GAS IN IT AND GO FISHING.
  5. Controls will be unique to each. A marine mechanic can tell you the shaft length you'll need.
  6. Chris, seems that you are stressing over nothing. If the shop that did your work knew what they were doing, you should have nothing to worry for quite a while. If you are comfortable with BB's, by all means put some on.
  7. Ditto, I'd like a sample as well. Thanks.
