[QUOTE="catmansteve, post: 271096, member: 8490"] Backed her into the pond today. Pushed the key in to prime, first turn of the key she cranked and puttered, flipped the high idle lever and turned the key again and she purred like a kitten. Strong stream from the peehole, revs up in forward and reverse, I think I'm in business :D While I'm waiting for my steering helm to get here, I decided to build bunks for the trailer, I don't like the idea of a roller trailer and a boat without a solid center keel... [ATTACH type="full" alt="IMAG0133.jpg"]39615._xfImport[/ATTACH] Took a few more pictures on the trailer and in the water. She sits a little low in the rear, but not as bad as I expected with that 200lb motor, this was also with the gas and battery all in the back [ATTACH type="full" alt="IMAG0129.jpg"]39616._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="IMAG0130.jpg"]39617._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="IMAG0131.jpg"]39618._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="IMAG0132.jpg"]39619._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
