Good point.

Right. Only problem is, it makes buying one over the web kinda hard for
someone like me who doesn't really understand which end goes up.

Guess I'd better look into return policies :-)

That is why you go buy a book on boat repairs. There are some real good
guides that will go into engine, drives and some general boat repair. I
would go to your local boat yard and look around. Most pull parts before
they junk boats or look on ebay or look in you phone book for used marine
parts. These kind of stores carry almost everything from hoses to
replacement gauges. I bet you can get everything you need for a reasonable
amount.
