....little place for them here, eh?

Anyway, here's a snap of Yo Ho's business end. I'm waiting for the
shrinkwrap guy to show up this week. Wrapping the exhaust after the
motor drains is part of the winterizing process. I've got to spend a
few minutes removing the rust from the prop and repainting it. One of
these days I'll find a prop paint that actually stays on the blade
tips. :)


Actually the prop looks great. If you hadn't done a little clam digging
with it, there would probably be no signs of paint wear at all. That is
a lightly used prop. Probably never run over 3500 rpm either. You take
very good care of your equipment.



Actually, the prop has never hit bottom, or anything else, as you might
be able to tell from the lack of dings or chips or dents in the blades.
It's not so easy to run aground in the Bay in a small outboard boat.

I rarely run the motor at more than 4250-4500 rpm. There's no reason to
do so. Doing so just burns more fuel and wears out the motor faster. I
also wash the boat out and flush the motor with fresh water after every
use.

Interesting "no charge" recall item on the winterizing bill, which is
another reason why I like to have the dealer take care of these things
for me.

I'm sure the owner genuinely appreciates your dedication, diligence and
general servitude. It will surely help protect her investment.

Shouldn't you be out selling overpriced annuities?

What are you raving about now? Did you have a stroke or something like
that? You used to be close to rational in your posts here.
