[QUOTE="dlmallory, post: 351005, member: 13386"] Finally had some time to work on it. Solved the motor problem by removing the lower unit and adjusting the shift rod by one turn. Now reverse works. Finished up the front two side panels. and protected the edges in the anchor compartment with some aluminum angle. Only a couple things left to do. Paint the engine cover so its not half brown and half white. Trim one of the front hatches so it fits better. Install one more courtesy light. Fix my fish finder. I went with a garmin echo and for some reason it will not provide me a depth or an image of what the bottom looks like in the water. I tried changing the settings even changing the frequency because this is a two frequency fish finder. I am not sure what is wrong with it because when I turned it on out of water and ran my steel toed boot under it about 3 feet away the boot showed up on the screen but nothing works right in the water. I contacted garmin today and they are replacing it free of charge. Hopefully that fixes the issue. [/QUOTE]
