Yea how long since it was run? What kind of shape was the prop in? Man, I'd buy it if it was up for sale, looked like it would get the job done.Great job ya'll. I would imagine ole bud would appreciate a mess of frog legs too, no telling how long its been since he had a mess. Later, Cajun

Yeah K-Mac, You bet he'll like it!
I wish he coulda heard it. I sure was happy when she cranked, and sounded so good. I don't think there's any major mechanical issues with it.
Cajun, I'm guessing it sat at least 3.5 years, perhaps five. They could'nt say for sure. The prop is rotten, but Sensenich has promised to donate a new prop for this project. Sensenich kicks butt! Not gonna spin her up with that prop on it. It's ok for just idleing it. Both mags are operating well!
Just wanted to git it cranked up, and get her hot.
She did'nt steam any moisture out wich suprised me.
Airboat4fun donated a few sacks of legs for Bud first time I went down there to visit him with JohnC. http://www.southernairboat.com/photopost/showphoto.php/photo/14044/ppuser/517
He drove cross town to make sure he linked up with us, and got those legs Southbound to Bud!
I thought that was cool...
JohnC brought them some Deer sausage, and ground bambi for their freezer this trip!
