Removed jet, transom adapter, and learned how much one could hate old silicone. Even got the wife to help out for about 5 minutes.

All depends on your built bro. I'm giving the 750 dp away. All you need is done gas money to pick it up. Pretty sure the 750 dp will suffice.

I would give it three minutes... At idle.   :thumbdown:

Let me see what I have in the "pile"...

That crank is toast. Needs to be cut, minimum.

Don't wait till less than a week before you're supposed to take the boat out to do everything you've been putting off for the past year. :banghead:

got parts for carbs, installed , and "tuned"
scraped all the old grease from inside the wheels. need to replace seals
got new tires for the trailer. good thing i did.
replaced and rewired some of the trailer lights
cleaned electric fuel pump
replaced fuel filter
replaced some fuel lines. a hacksaw sucks at cutting steel braided lines. (or at least I do).
tried to redo some boat wiring, but figured it'll work for now and worry about it next year ;D.

I know some guys have done a lot more in less time, but I'm tired.
go to harbor freight tools and buy a 20 dollar 4" electric grinder then get the 4" cut off wheels to replace the grinding wheel you'll be cutting braided line like butter for under 30 bucks,  also wrap the line in tape where you want to cut and cut right through the tape it helps keeping the line from fraying.
