Btw, that straight 6 Chevy is a work horse of an engine and its economical too. You'll be toooobing the grandkids all day on a half tank of gas...


Is The John a boater again? Just in time...we were drafting legislation to ban disruptive non boaters from the group. ;-)

Had a great time yesterday . Put 3.25 hrs on my break-in schedule touring the North West Arm, harbour, Eastern Passage area and the Bedford Basin.
Only 8.75 hrs to go and I'll have my full 20 in.



A boat with a straight Chevy 6? Really? How interesting.


The odd thing is...in the spring when I announced my new boat The John and his Drama Queen, Justine, ridiculed me for being dumb enough to buy a boat with a Mercruiser engine over an outboard equipped boat. There were dire tales of manifolds and elbows rotting away as soon as it touched salt water and the high cost of replacement. Now The John buys an older I/O powered boat. What's up with that?

I'm a good maintainer. Besides, I got a great deal on this boat. Now, quit your name-calling and
join a discussion.


What kind of responce should he expect when he announces "I bought
a Bay Liner"?


I'm still wondering if it's got a carburetor like his salesman said.


D'uh, Johnnymop. Y'all were the one who posted the Mercury link that confirmed the 2v carb on the Mercruiser with TKS.

I suppose you could look. If it has a float bowl, it is a carburetor

Same principle anyway.

Btw John. I'm sure you won't have any problems, but I have a complete engine and lower 165 drive from a salvage part-out boat.

If you need anything that I can supply you with, it's yours for the asking ( and shipping, lol!)

Don't forget the WD-40 for winterizing!

No shipping. I'd just ride the Guzzi out there, let you buy me lunch, and strap it to the back!

My Dutch friend still wonders why that wouldn't work!

"Don't forget the WD-40 for winterizing!"


The John is probably scouring the Internet for a deal on cheap 2 cycle oil for that 4 stroke engine.
What a putz!
