Mad Hatter, I've loved your Dads Boat from the first time I saw it! Where is he I havent seen it around all year?I bought an old sled from your Dad in 1997 a 650 Polaris, what a death trap! all kinds of power and no suspension...crashed it on several occasions but what a gas! best lake sled I ever owned!!

Dyno: Your the guy that bought that 650!? Man that thing had balls, the suspension though, compared to what I was riding at the time was like a cadilac! I have an MXZ800 now, that thing is awesome I love it.
The cig was down and out up until last weekend. Last year we were running it on the hose to check the timing when my Dad heard a hammering. You could hear it better when you plugged your ears. He had several of his friends come over and listen to it and they told him he was just being paranoid. I swore I heard it too though. So this year at the beginning of spring we fire it up on the hose again, same motor somethings knocking. So he pulled the SC off and set it on the desk, when you turned the pulley the paddles scraped on eachother on the back side but only at certain times. Viola! The knock is found, turned out the bearings went bad on the back side of the blower. He just got the blower back from The Blower Shop a couple weeks ago. He had it out for the first time this year on monday night.

well looks like I found my combo. Mad hatter, if you could just find me a nice place on the water, so I can keep my boat in my backyard, in spring lake or something, and Mitch can hook me up with 3% financing I'll be all set.
Ya, I know, those things aren't going to happen, but what the hell!! Have to try right!!!
