At least if this morning's run is any indication. *Delivered the boat to

Replaced bulb and all rubber lines from the tank pick-up point, to the
bulb. Replaced both filters (on engine and fuel-water separator). Had a
service company come by and clean out the tank, sludge, stuff, and he
even managed to get that nut-like part I dropped in last week. Due to
its light weight, basically a small aluminum tube, approx 1 inch long,
closed on one end, it was 'possible' it got picked up by the suction and
partially blocked the pick-up tube.


All appears back to normal now.


Very cool, need a deckhand...??


uh, 'it depends'.

1- can u catch a lobster?
2- fillet a fish?
3- can handle a boat?
4- look good in a thong?
