I Can't Believe It's June 5th And This Was My First Day Out This Season

[JimKW]

We were out of town all week and got back Friday, so last weekend was out. And it's been so darn cold and rainy here through May that when we did have one nice weekend I had so much to do in the yard that I didn't take the boat out.

I pulled the boat out of the garage, put the muffs on it pumped the throttle three times and it started in a matter of seconds. No cranking whatsoever. I charged the batteries two weeks ago and that's all I did since it was winterized. Other than waxing it two weeks ago too.

MAN IT FELT NICE TO BE OUT ON THE WATER FINALLY!!!

I've been collecting motors as a hobby for the last few years.....most pre 1960.

I heard that. Finally today, after work we're headed up to the islands for a couple of days. Last week was consumed with getting the boat to the marina, and when we finally got it there the winds were too high to go out.
