Can't wait.<br /><br />Last year(july) bought an '82 Celebrity with under 100 hours on it. 5.0L with OMC outdrive I got to take it out once last year to see what all it needed.<br /><br />I will pick it up from the shop saturday, it got a new impeller, new rubber boot, tune up and new belts.<br /><br />Saturday afternoon it will get a dip in the river to make sure every thing is running good, and then our first weekend trip to mark twain lake in MO to play for a couple days!<br /><br />My first couple trips will be to mark twain lake because my aunt/uncle live only 5 minutes from the campsite, so if I have trouble I have someone local I can call... then it's off to explore the rest of the local lakes.<br /><br />Will let ya'll know how it goes. When I bought the boat I was nervous as could be about going out for the first time, but after reeding all the posts on here in the last year, I'm pretty confident everything will go just fine. <br /><br />....remember plug...remember plug...remember plug.....
