Looks good on the back of any boat! Congrats!

I hope to be getting 1 in the next few weeks.

I haven't seen Stevey for her to tell me about it yet, but thanks.

Once upon a time i filled a 40 horse tohatsu with red diesel and ran it all the way from cal point to west cove and back pushing a floating crane and a boat...and it ran the whole time. Those Tohatsu's are some beasts!!!!!!

I cranked it in the drive way and to my surprise it sounded more like a sewing machine than an outboard motor. Didn't rattle windows on the next block like my old merc 40 did.
