Thanks!
I have a friend planning on looking at the recoiled for me on Wednesday and if no lunch I'm taking it to the shop. Just wish I was able to buy a new motor and avoid this trouble. This one has had it's better days way past.

Today ill get pics and post. I'm wonder if that's a DO NOT SAIL warning? ...

Looks like fun. I had the same problem first time out with stuff falling all over when we heeled. Now everything will have a secure place to live. DL can we beach our boats along the Indiana shores or do we have to anchor out? I will be putting ours in on Saturday afternoon at Hammond. Are you stay...
