Ron-
Would you believe me if I told you that's how it was rigged from Nordic?

Nope

Personnally, I would get a rear plate for it.
But I'm just a dumb cabinetmaker from Esco.

Anyone starting a contracting co. now, would be dumb.

Looks like a pretty stout rear mount

The only thing that scared me is the way the motor is mounted. If i'm seeing it correctly, its a 4 pt front plate with a 3 pt rear bellhousing. Usually with a 3 pt. the front mounting pt. utilizes the std motor mount on the block. That carries more of the weight of the motor and less stess on the pump.

ron, im not really happy with you rite now
 i thought this was NOT going to be a big project

You want me to take that off yer hands there Ralph. I'll have a runnin Sleek here inna few days.....TRade?

Ralph, the only reason you're not happy with me is because you know its not right and needs to be set up correctly. With that said, put it together, get it in the water, go have fun. Apparently its been that way for a long time. I just wouldn't be launching off any barge wakes, which I tend to do with my Advantage all the time.  Looks like a winter fix. Just keep checking the intake for signs of stress.  

Good score Ralphy! So if I have it right that makes the score Ralph 3, Ray 4, Ron.....who the fuk know at this point 6,7,12 oh and I forgot Bob 0

I have lost count. But thanks for the "Bob 0" reminder Jeremy ass clown

Don't worry bob, both of us will be out there soon enough!

Fathers Day Using Ray's boat

Here comes another "60-ish" family boat...........
Ray

since its got the chebby im guessin 40ish

I'm up to three again but I think Rays haulin one off next month. Up to seven bikes now tho  

Damn, only got 5 bikes

Damn, only got 5

It ain't a race......

But you got quality and class goin for you bro, quality and class...... That is the determining factor.....

Ray

I can barely afford  the 1 I have now I dont know how you guys do it

Here's how it happens Gord........"Hello?, yeah, you listed a {blankety Blank part} for sale on [Craigs List/Ebay] ? what's the condition, can you send me more pics?"....Lo and behold the pics come, along with pics of the rest of the boat and tons of other crap that might come in handy..Another call "Hello, yeah, me again, how much for the {other blankety blank parts} and shipping? You got a WHAT for sale also? Really?"....simple math kicks in......end up buying the whole goddam boat, maybe a patio set and/or a couch, and your front yard looks like the USN Mothball Fleet in Norfolk, Virginia, and you feel an obligation to at least try and put them all back together...........Welcome to my world..........
