Sometimes I forget just how spoiled I've been to have grown up boating on Cumberland.
Thanks. Brad.

I grew up on a pond but its the only thing close besides the Hudson River and not the section in upstate NY where it is still fresh and clean. I'm in Westchester county near Indian point and west point, I'm NOT BOATING in that cesspool!

That makes a lot more sense then hahaha...I would for sure go the used route...hit up sick stinger as he usually has a ton of stuff laying around...might be able to get one pretty reasonable. Just make sure you get good pics of everything before you buy so you're not in the same boat....pun intended hahahaa

So after heloing a friend rig an AC unit into his attic last night I said let me go hit the gimble assembly with a piece of red scratchpad quick and see what happens, I tried it on the gasket surface for the Y-pipe and it came nice and clean with no pitting. I think it looks way uglier than it really is. Ill spend an hour this weekend and see where it goes. If it looks savable after that Ill dig in but if the other surfaces show to much pitting ill bail. I mean at this point what's a few hours wasted if it saves me a few grand. If not I know what needs to happen. Stay tuned for this debockel!

I went this route, I bought a new Mercruiser HP transom assembly I'm picking it up Friday. Should make my life a bit easier!
