Norm, I just got back from the boat and saw these posts, you got my number, I don't do the brewskis (just ole Bacardis and Coke) but will make sure the first few ya throw in that belly are mine (were?) anywho, I just pulled the Big Enough II out for the season and am getting ready to do the Preventive Maintainance stuff we all know all too well. The port engine got a water pump leak just 5 days before takin her out so repaired that and put in the marine style fuel pump on that engine, all ran good for the last couple of days she was in the water. All that needs doin now on that one is is winterizing and on the starboard side I am pulling the prop shaft, replacing the cutlass (as per surveyor) pulling the tranny, (turns slowly while in neutral, all the time, fluids level fine and good color, disconected linkage and manually moved the shifter but no such luck, still rotating in neutral detent) and repacking stuffings. But my offer to you is for '11 unless you wanna come play in the bilge in the fall with a bacardied up Big Enough II captain. Your call, oh, also my first year with the boat, 600 miles and a tad over 50 hours. JAM
