True, but soup cans are cheaper, Most of the watermen I knew didn't have
alot of $$ to spare on flappers, or we're just plain cheap. As a matter
of fact the same dockmate I mentioned pulled that 455 out of an old
Pontiac to use in his boat. I made the keel coolers for him.
Sometimes in order to make a living, and put food on the table you have

I know exactly what you mean! I grew up on a farm and when something
broke, you didn't take it to the shop, you fixed it. I sure learned
alot that way, though. It amazes me when I see people my age and
younger that don't know how to do anything for themselves.
