    I know the feeling. Just got mine back, carbs were all clogged up with trash. Hope you tear em up when you get on the water again. Good Luck

    It's either fix the boat or pay a Phsychiatrist. Fixing boat whole lot cheaper!!!
    I fish 7 days a week; some days for fish, everyday for men.

    PS
    I can relate to your pain. Just got mine back from the shop again after the overhaul with only 14.5 hours run time on it. I was still running double oil in it even though I
    only had to do that for 10 hours. Had 2 busted pistons. Mechanic said something caused engine to fire at wrong time so new power pack and new encitor ring where lazer
    light comes through openings to fire. Mechanic warrantied all but new parts. Thank goodness for that but now new break in for 10 hours but at least it wasn't another $3500!

    Busy time of the year for those boat shops. Hope they get you straightened out and I can meet you on the lake.
