Re: Stus-List follow-up on outboards

2014-08-05 Thread Robert Gallagher via CnC-List
Here is my two cents. Engine issues will not simply go away by purchasing an outboard. Outboards break down, it's a fact of life. On of the reasons I justified selling my 30MMKI with an A-4 was that the engine was the original, 1972, raw water cooled, soon to die, at the end of the line, it

Bill, Holy crap, I never thought of that. My boat came with a latch and lock on the propane locker. Here I am spouting off at the gizzard thinking I'm doing the right thing. Assuming you are correct, and it seems like you may be, I guess I have to remove that latch and think of a new way to
