Luis,
We're just taking it easy on the newer guy. Besides, Ed doesn't post much  
to the list anymore. I know he's lurking, but doesn't participate. He joined 
 Bill Effros political list. That's where most of the political talk has 
gone  and I'm glad of it.

Chris,  Elle, and Rummy,

I did miss you guys.  

I noticed that I  posted something and wasn't told to check the archives.  

What is  going on?

Welcome back  Luis!  I love my electric start with an alternator so it
charges the  battery, I have a 6 but an 8 would be great.  Glad you are 
going
to  enjoy you boat.

Hello everyone,

I'm back on the list after a couple of  years of absence. 

I had some personal and health problems and had my  boat on the trailer all
this 
time, but it is time to get back on the  water.

I have to paint the bottom and repair the centerboard  trunk's cap. It has 
a 
crack and a little bit of water gets in. I removed  all 52 bolts only to 
find
out 
that it had been sealed with something  that looks like 3M 5200. So, this 
is 
going to be a pain in the neck to  remove.

Somebody told me that this epoxy actually softens when heated  above 120 F
and to 
use a heat gun to heat it and carefully lift the cap  a bit at a time. I'll
try 
that this coming weekend.

Also, I need  to get an engine as my old one won't run anymore and it is so
old  
that I do not want to spend any more money on it.

I'm thinking  about the Tohatsu 8 hp, 20" Shaft, Tiller, Rope/Electric 
start.
Any  
comments on this? Luis A. Guzmán II
