Kind of reminds me of what happened back in the mid-70's - I want to
say '75/'76 - The Summer That Never Came.

Had to turn up the heat in my office this morning.

Well, it's good you have an outboard with a 25" shaft on that boat with
the low 20" transom and jackplate. You'll be able to lift the lower unit
out of the water so the ice won't freeze around it.

Hmmmm...when "jackplated," does a 25" shaft outboard on a 20" transom
equal an outboard with a 20" shaft?

No Mr. Science.
