I can't wait to put this baby on and see how it runs. She's gotta run better than the '74 Mercury

she's still sitting in the box. I went out to eat with my daughter and then picked up a new battery and some oil. I'll probably wait until tomorrow afternoon to put her on. My daughter is leaving for the beach Sunday morning so I'll spend the day doing whatever she wants tomorrow. But I'll be on the river early Sunday breaking it in.

Sounds like a good plan right there.

Thanks fellers! I'm looking froward to trying it out tomorrow. I finally got her mounted. I had to patch a couple of holes and drill new ones because it had a different hole pattern on the bracket. I reckon things have changed from 1974 to 2017. Time for a beer. All I have to do now is hook up the battery and fill up the gas tank and she should be ready.

Spent the day going through the break in. She fired up on the first push of the button and she's so quiet when she idles you can barely hear her running. I believe I'm going to like this motor.
