"a whole tank of gas"??
I wish I only used that much since is costs 1.33 per liter right now and the inboard tank holds 60 liters. I realize you are trying to make a funny but you'd best stick with your day job.....oh wait..you don't have one. |

FlaJim is qualified to change the spark plug on a single cylinder lawn mower engine if someone gaps the plug and removes the old one with the proper socket. |

I am sure he got a kick out of it also. |

I don't recall seeing *one* post of his here that demonstrated a *high* level of knowledge of any boating subject, and that goes back to years past before he began posting here with his variety of handles. We've had dealers and professional mechanics, here no longer, that demonstrated a lot more knowledge, and we've had hobbyists demonstrating more knowledge. |

He was well known and respected when he lived up here for keeping people's outdrives working properly, including complete rebuilds when necessary. He helped me out a lot in getting one of my first boats (an old Century) running and working decently. It should have been deep sixed. One thing I liked was that he would never take a short cut in the interest of saving a couple of bucks. He found and fixed several amateurish "fixes" on that boat done by a previous owner that could have resulted in fires or other serious safety issues. He earned my respect and has remained a good friend. He just doesn't like you very much. |

But that comment coming from someone who doesn't have the prowess to dig a hole for a deck post was amusing. |
