Then it's off to the T-top place for a black remake! I dropped the outriggers off this morning at the powder coat shop. That old nast 10 year old aluminium will be refinished in a gloss black coating, then new stainless hardware for them w/ new line clips. New decals should be at my house by Thursday!

That shipyard does not sell motors.
They might be able to find you some, but they don't sell them.
You might try Bowtie Marina. They work on outboards over there.

Our plan is to run the 2 stroke 250's this year and repower w/ four stroke 300's next year. They only have 600 hr's so we should get another year out of them w/o issue!

knock on wood!!!

Yep, 35 gallons/Hr at 4700 RPM's to be exact!!!! and we were rolling at 43mph at the time. So we will use the boat and it's 300 gallon capacity to it's limits, then see if we can pay the house note at the end of the month!!!!! LOL!
