Title: New Fron Norcal
Post by: Bayon Dude on December 23, 2008, 04:19:15 PM
I've been checking out the site for months, wish we had that kind of support here in NorCal... Anyway, thought I would do my first post. I picked up my first and hopefully only boat late summer. It's a 19 foot 1975 Bayon with a 455 Olds, only took it out once so far and it was a blast. Anyone have experience with a Bayon?


Now if I could figure out how to post pics I would share my pain/pleasure.

welcome to the site man!

and just fyi, since its your first boat, olds have bad oil issues if you hold the throttle for a long period. my .02, buy the OIL restrictor kit from www.mondellotwister.com if you don't have one, it's the reason my motor is getting a new long block. wish someone would have tod me!  :banghead:

good luck!   ;D

Welcome, and I'm a Nor-Cal transplant as of this week.  Stopped by the local marina and was told I shouldn't get any problems from the rangers here for having OT headers, so bring on summer  :mad:  I has snowed every day since I have been here  :sly:

Hey Chaz -- glad to hear you made it.   Hope you enjoy the new rancho.   Snow builds character (I hear).
Thanks again for letting me "lighten your load".   Summer is only 100 days away give or take a weekend or two.
