[QUOTE="Recon, post: 206467, member: 5964"] Yes...never noticed that I mistyped that. Speaking of the motor...got the first base coat of camo on the cowling lest night. The rest of the motor will be a slower process because I have to tape everything off and remove some of the years worth of gunk that has accumulated. Besides that it runs great and now starts on the first pull. Also replaced the lower unit oil with fresh. We also sprayed the upper surface of the interior woth its camo base coat. The lower area along the floor will stay its current gray as it will be getting covered by cushioned matts that will make it quiet, as well as, add some padding. I am using the same floor padding that they use in horse stables. My son's girlfriend is moving her horse to a new stable and I am getting it at a very good price...free. It is flat black and if I give it a good powerwashing the horse smell should be gone. I figure if it can cushion a horse then I should be no problem. I run the Susquehanna River for ducks and I am also going to try for some of the muskies, so I was thinking about some kind of prop guard. Does anybody have any reccomendations or tried things that just didn't work that I should stay away from? [/QUOTE]
