Out of curiosity, ever owned a DI two stroke?


I thought you had the only one.


That list would include Yamahama Mamas HPDI you know.

Besides, you own ancient technology so butt out. :)



I *am* ancient technology.

I still have an interest in boating. J.D. Powers is a for-pay rating
service and therefore b.s.


As opposed to what, you, with free bull****?

Unfortunately, my libido hasn't aged. I'm trying to figure out a way to
get that bikini babe from Florida under my sheets.
Not that I'd remember what to do then, but...I'd work on it.

Nope. I've had one EFI four stroke and several carbed two strokes.
The last couple of times I upgraded my fishing setup, either OMC was
in it's death throws, or the Ficht and Optimax versions of Russian
roulette were still being played out, denting wallets along the way.
I wouldn't pass on an newer ETech, Opti or TLDI nowadays. The
teething pains seem to be gone.

The outboard most on my mind these days is Nissan's new 30hp EFI four
stroke with both electric and pull start. I keep imaginging one on a
tiller steered, 16' aluminum deep v, with a bow trolling motor and
only one battery servicing both motors, as the perfect protected water/
river fishing rig.

Harry, you are *so* neat! Bill probably considers it an honor, as do I, to
be in your 'pretend' kill file. Goodness, soon everyone will be there and
you'll see no headers! Your ego couldn't take it.

If nothing else you could at least examine her as a work of art.
Our 'John' on the other hand could spend hours comparing handbags, shoes and
favourite outfits.

Well, we're going to look for her and others just as nice the next few
days down in "Souf' Flor-ida, on "Souf' Beach." My wife will be along,
carrying a bucket of water on me in case I get out of control and start
stammering. Supposed to be at least two or three days of mid-70's weather.

I could use a southern vacation about now. After a mild start to our
winter, we've been in a steady dry but cold spell for the last few weeks.
Maybe I should call my buddy in the BVI and see if his standing invite is
still standing.

I noticed last night that the high winds had caused waves of 20' at our
harbour mouth. This morning they have dropped to 11.5 '.
That would be quite a ride on a sailboat my size.
