......the boat, not me. :roll:
Yesterday, I was puttering upstream for the last float through, and I turned and checked my boat engine's pee-hole. There was absolutely nothing coming out. Since I was near the ramp, I decided to go ahead on and load 'er up. I have a through hub exhaust, and this has an auxiliary exhaust(?)t on the leg. There was water coming from this, so actually I wasn't too worried. Got her on the trailer, up the ramp, took the cowling off. Took the hose off the cover and blew. Nothing. Came home, removed the hose, hit it with the air compressor. Passed the equivalent of marine kidney stones.
Moral of this: Guys, take a gander once in a while at your stream and keep your pee-hole free flowing.
p.s. I once had a Sears Gamefisher (by Force) that I ran a tube up the gunnel to view without the need of turning around.
