Howdy Stray cat and welcome. Something is amiss here. You say you are the Parts Manager for Honda, yet you have a Yamaha outboard. I'll put my super sleuth ' Keith Hart on to ya, careful now.

Nice and sunny isn't it?
That means it is going to rain soon.

El Dorado is in Arkansas home of the knot head Bill Clinton at least he wont be commin back here My boat is a true tunnel pointed nose with a tunnel running down the middle of the bottom for air entrapment so that the boat rides on a cushion of air at high speeds they also have a nasty habit of blowing over at speeds approaching 100mph doest make for a good day if that happens. My boat was built bt the Liberator boat co in Texas and is an old design from the 70s although mine is a 2003 model and the last one to leave the factory , there are much newer faster and safer designs out now but I like this one my neighbor had one of the originals back in the 70s and I fell in love with it , I bought that boat in the early 90s and after flogging it with several motors from OMCs to Mercs and Yamahas I finally decided to retire the boat (needed major renovation) I found out that Liberator was or had built a copy so I bought one for Christmas last year. I'll post a picture some day when I learn how to use my camera thanx Stray Cat
