Shawn,
RE: the drawing. I have the original I "procured" from the Google pics I can post to this site. Not sure where to do that but if you can enlighten me, I'd be glad to.

I took a big gulp of cold air and headed for the boat. Actually, sitting under the cockpit snuggled up to the motor wasn't too bad. I thought it would be a lot hotter. But I digress...

Today I went to the boat and checked things out. It's getting to 110 around here so spending extensive time working on it isn't feasible (unless you have a large S on your chest). I tried to get an...
