TOPIC: Short video of the Hudson today

This was a shake down cruise for 2012, and an opportunity to see how our puppy took to boating. The good news is he didn't freak at all. I think he's gonna be fine. Motor ran great, is at about 1/2 speed/rpm here, but blasted up to speed with no problem. Ya gotta love these old outboards. This is a 49 year old motor on a 50 year old boat!

Frank the Mrs and the Pup look like they are having a ball but that motor isn't breaking a sweat at all. Sounds like a dream machine.
Thx for the ride!

Thanks Jim. I usually run around 2500, 2600 with the Mrs in the boat. I went faster today (opened her up), but need both hands when I'm doing that. It was really just a shake down cruise, make sure the puppy didn't freak. I think he's gonna do just fine, plus he's a ball on land!

Hope all is well on your end.

Thanks Skip, we had a good time, but couldn't be out too long. Busy guy. Meetings tonight, and too much to do at the salt mine...
