Sunset tonight. Can’t tell there is a Bomb Cyclone brewing to the South. Not expecting any snow here.

Those pivot drives are awesome. With a pair and a joy stick docking becomes a kids game. Did you get a price?
At the time they released these less than a year ago it was something like 80k. Will probably double by the time they become available, as in - for any repower. Keep in mind if you have a boat that can actually accommodate a couple of those, 80k is just champ change, lol.

But in all seriousness, I don't really get it. Anything that needs more than about twin 300s, maybe 350s, really should be diesel territory - in my mind. I was chatting with a Everglades salesman about his 40+ CC with quad 425 yammies on the back, it does ~110 gph wide open. That is - 110 gallons per hour, lol.

2 degrees with 20mph winds, and the snow is going to miss us to the south and east. You definitely win/lose this one. But I was out in it long enough this morning to get this...I know at least one guy who caught a fish today.

That’s a great pic. I’ve been watching for the Stellers sea eagle that’s been spotted 5-10 miles up the coast. Supposedly he is twice the size of a bald eagle.

He will probably be active tomorrow.

Had more water leaking from the boiler. This time it was cracks from the door frame area in the water jacket. Not in the greatest spots to weld but got it welded (not very pretty but worked) & fired back up.
