"thanks Doug" Went To Algonquin For Cocktails Then Around 10:30 P:m To Walmart $48.00 Tool Kit Tube Of Grease Small Hammer 2 Flash Lights,back To Scotty's After 2 Hours & 10 Minutes Of Bitching And Mosquitoes Chewing On Me It Was Done.to Be Tested Sat. A:m. (after 15' Of Trying Compress The Water Pump Vanes I Unscrewed The The Largest Hose Clamp And Used It Like A Ring Compressor Greased It And It Went In). Sat A:m It Worked Perfect. Ok Now It's Sunday I Hung Back At Rogers Rock Left Last And Coming Down The East Side Of Turtle Island And Watching For L/g Patrol Saw A Rock Pile To Late. Turned To The Left And Cut Throttle Then Loud Bang. Could Have Been Worse About 2 Inch Gouge In Bottom + Small Piece Out Of Bottom Of Outdrive Not Any Prop Damage, But Out Drive Seems Looser When You Grab It By Hand (out Side Of Boat) And Steering Wheel Seems About Two Inches Off Center.after That Went Up To Treasure Cove To Hang Out For Awhile, Then On Way Back To Scotty's Stopped At Store On 9n For Something Kim Needed , Some Lady Said She Needed More Room To Pull Out So I Backed Up (ford P/up) When I Went To Pull Forward The Truck Wouldn't Move So Already Being Cranked Up I Thought The Bumper Was Hung Up On Something So I Stepped On The Gas And Apparently A Fire Plug (oh Yes Hydrant Kim Called It After) Had Gotten Lodged Between The Cab And Box So One Lower Side Including The Door Of The Truck Got Chewed Up Also. Well I Still Had A Good Time Meeting All The Donzi People And Wouldn't Trade The Weekend For Any Thing , Every Thing Will Get Fixed.
