Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.“

Isn't it great when things come together when you least expect it.
I have this friend, that is kind of a grumpy fellow, but a good friend. When I stopped by one time to check out his new Street Rod project, I wound up with my Cathedral and he threw in the 50 hp Force motor, stating he knew nothing about either. All for free. I had to give him $100.00 for the trailer. But that was a no brainer, as I had no way of hauling it. It's great to have good friends. I will most likely do some powder coating for him, to return the favor. I love my boat and motor! :)

i need a plan b,lol,or someone to get it from todd and hold it until the begining of next month,by then i should have enough to put a new axle joint in the front of my truck and for gas,and meet someone somewhere to get it.
thank you john
