Very good. Most of the advice you've received was free anyway, so why pay attention to it? Hope your

Don't feel so put off, Johnny.
I listened to all the advice, weighed the options and made a decision.
Blame it on Gfre...
He reminded me of one of the main considerations.. that is boating in shallow waters where the motor is tiled up to avoid striking the propeller while slowly motoring along.
I've come out of those areas a number of times and forget that the motor is slightly tilted up until the bow reaches for the sky.

Which is it, spellchecker? "tiled" or "tilted"?
