DUDE!

Just be sure the boat is aimed in the direction you want to go when you pull the rope, OK? A direct drive 22.5 hp outboard is gonna go when it starts.

Take pictures of your boat underway, please, and post 'em.

It would have to be in a barn.
I have a problem passing barns.
They're goldmines.

Looks like a model 6039. Nice motors! I've run ours a few times. Now you need the Johnson counterpart - the PO-15!
