new member from the UK saying hi

well i have been nosing around on here for a while now and thought it was time i introduced myself.
My names Kevin i have had a rib before but many many moons ago and after stumbling on this site i got a taste for it and fancied another.
so today i became the proud owner of a small but groovy quicksilver 310 with Honda 6HP 4stroke engine.
And beware i will be asking questions lot of them.

I've only ever owned 2 stroke outboards.
You'll have to find out what viscosity and grade you need regards oil?
