Look for intake vents between what is usually called the cavitation plate and the pointy bottom of the skeg. The intakes typically are right in that area. I would be wary of starting an engine while the proper is "resting on the sand." What's a "proper" idiot? What is it about Newsgroups that prompts some people to be both hostile and unhelpful? |
