Test / breakin the new motor

Post by What a mess »

Rode down to Keaton took my buddies little boat a 31 Fountain twin Merc 200 EFI's (he has a 41' w twin inboards @1000hp) it was a little sloppy 1st hole nada 2nd was pmg's just testing her out we took lite gear on purpose I got the donkeys fired up and lost several slab spoons I had an eight foot MH Trout rod with a 4000 size reel bent in a c shape for about 45 min and then was passing it around. My buddie wasn't getting it I was shouting reel jerk reel boy as soon as he started turning the handle he got blasted. Layed down and was pretty, made a to do to buy fix list washed her down on the way in trim tabs down a touch and 3000 rpm running about 30 and just rolling on in. Break in was done let the big dog eat I backed out of it around 55 mph that joker will fly. Not a meat run just a shaked down cruise.

Salt + Sun = life!

Reef donkeies are fun but I am a tad sore in the shoulders today.
Yesterday it was taboo today it is normal what the heck will they be doing tomorrow?
