All that makes sense to me.


By the way Tom how are those new E-Tecs running have you got them all
sorted yet?? or are you still being run around while Bomb try to decide
how to back out of this latest consumer funded experiment???


Love 'em. Can't believe the power and efficiency of them. And quiet?
It's amazing - makes four strokes sound like hot rods.

About a hundred hours on them at this point between me and my friend
and if I project things out, we'll be averaging about 8 gallons an
hour average - runs and trolling of course. Longer runs like to the
Canyons will bring that up, but I'm projecting anywhere from 10 to 13
gallons per hour at cruise to the grounds. WOT of course is a
different story.

I've talked to a lot of folks at the local ramps who have the 90
E-TECs and they can't say enough about them.

So far, so good.

I'm genuinely glad they're OK Tom & wish you well with them. Hope you
keep us up to date with their general stuff, well done & congrats.

Seeing yesterday Krause lie was about the fantasies father boat dealer,
in today's Krause lie you can see how he tries to use the father lie to
pretend boating experience of which the lying idiot has none. As well as
the most brazen liar I've even experienced he's full up himself, have a
read of this infantile crap:-)



Let's see. I've owned many different Evinrude and Johnson outboards from
OMC,
three different Merc outboards from Merc, a Clinton, a Scot A****er
(well, my
father took in one on a trade and gave it to me) and some piece of crap
from Sears
that my father won at the New England boat show and was autographed by Ted
Williams. Until very recently, Honda made only low power outboards and
these were
of no interest to me. And I see nothing Yamaha offers that interests me even
slighty. Oh...I've also owned boats with Atomic 4's, Volvo diesels, MAN
diesels, a
Caterpillar diesel and one boat with twin Cadillac Crusader engines,
plus a few
others. I believe in my lifetime I've owned around 30 different power and
sailboats.

Plus a Cushman motor scooter, a Lambretta motor scooter, a Honda Super Hawk
motorcycle, several jeeps, including a Willys sports car, an Aero
Willys, a 55
Chevy, an MGA, an Austin Healy 100, a TR-4A-IRS, a Volvo P whatever the
hell it
was, a Volvo Turbo, a Jag 150-S, two Ford trucks, a BMW 2002ti, a
Porsche 911
(when they were $5400 brand new), a Lotus Cortina, a Mini-Cooper S, a Toyota
Corona, a Toyota Corolla, a Nissan shoebox and I suppose a few more.

Still have the Jag and a Ford truck. The Jag is a lovely piece of crap,
and the
Ford truck is...terrific.
